Album of the Evening

[Musicophile]

Thanks for this, I'm listening now.

Indeed, this is the golden age of the Jazz piano trio.

Thanks!

 

A now for something completely different:

 

 

Schubert: Symphony No. 9 - Christoph von Dohnanyi - Philharmonia Orchestra.

Fiona Apple - Tidal

[Kelly]

 

Posthumous release of his final project. Very tasteful if a bit understated.

Dufay: Missa Ecce Ancilla Domini

Vellard, Ensemble Gilles Binchois

"Jack White embarked on an unusual, acoustic tour. Hitting the only five states in the US in which he had yet to perform — the wild environs of North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Idaho and Alaska — White and his acoustic ensemble delivered jaw-dropping performances to the previously deprived terrritories.

 

Each show was announced only hours before curtains lifted and tickets were only available in the venue box office, 1 per person, for $3. The shows had several standards and rules set ahead of time by White:

 

No amplifiers, only ribbon microphones used, and no monitors on stage."

Excellent trio jazz, well recorded. See also my review here: https://musicophilesblog.com/2016/06/25/recommended-julia-hulsmann-trio-imprint/

 

Yes, thank you for calling our attention to this album and to this piano player!

 

Very nice, and great recorded sound from ECM, too.

Thanks as this prompted me to play this

 

Earlier I gave this a second listen, nice to hear k.d.'s voice again.

Reminds me of this release

While we're on the lute:

 

I've received this album in 24/96 as a free compensation from eclassical after pointing out that one of their albums I had bought from them was mislabeled on the site (excellent customer service by the way).

 

Well played and very well recorded.

Working my way through Dufay's Masses and some motets:

 

Du Fay: Les messes à teneur

Jesse Rodin, Cut Circle

CD2:

Missa Ecce Ancilla Domini

Ave Regina Caelorum

Missa Ave Regina Caelorum

 

[Guidof]

 

Chopin: Etudes. Vigorous, energetic performances by Maurizio Pollini.

 

The sound, from a 24/96 Qobuz download (remaster), is vivid and clear, but a bit unpleasantly clangy.

 

For a more relaxed approach of these works, I also like Claudio Arrau's interpretations:

 

 

The sound, form a Warner CD rip, is a bit muffled, but the overall timbres sound more like a piano's than the DG remaster.

The K&D Sessions

Compilation album by Kruder & Dorfmeister

[John H]

She opened for Gregory Porter a couple of weeks ago, not real impressed live but this album has a nice laid back groove.

Have been meaning to do a discography listening session of CSN/Y, and the individual solo albums of David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash and then of course Neil Young too... this is a good heads up.

[BacHolz]

 

Nice, one of the very first albums I bought (as a new release).

A classic from the golden age of rock 1968 to '72. IMHO...
