Lots of music listening over the last two days.
Firstly, from my newly wonderful box set:
All with Kudelik and the Symphonieochester des Bayerischen Rundfunks
Schumann Symphonies 1,2 and 4 (You guys are absolutely right about this cycle. It rocks !!!!)
Mozart Symphony no. 36 One of my favorite symphonies by Mozart. Again, very nicely played
Brucker Symphony no. 4 Now that was quite a happy surprise. I was not really buying the box set for the two symphonies by Brucker by this 4th is very good indeed. A very clear sound a lots of precision
From the other great cycle that I recently purchased
Haydn Symphony no. 88 Szell/Cleveland Symphony Orchestra
Here is a symphony that I did not previously owned but heard on the first concert that I ever went to back in 2000. If Haydn is as amazing each time then I think that I am up for many beautiful discoveries. Ideal music to listen to while relaxing on my couch
This afternoon:
Brahms Symphony no. 1 BSO/Hannoncourt Live recording can be so great with such an orchestra and a great conductor
Gershwin Piano Concerto MTT/MTT/San Fransisco Symphony orchestra
This piece is so full of imagination. I only know the usual Rhapsody in Blue, An American in Paris and this concerto by Gershwin. I always wondered if there is nothing else worthy from him to listen too.
And lastly,
Nielsen Symphony no. 3 Michael Schonwandt/Danish National Symphony Orchestra
Rapidly becoming my favorite version of that work. I don't know if that is because I listened to it on my IPOD but the sound was amazing and full of clarity. The last time I listened to that version was in last August when I was in Reykjavik for my honeymoon. Great memories
