Album of the Evening

[The Computer Audiophile]

When in Rome ...

Recently I added a couple more of Masaaki Suzuki recordings to my library. Among them - Mozart's Requiem. This is actually my first listen in a quality, hi-res format. Whoever recommended it here long ago (I think this was @Musicophile ) - my deep gratitude!

Absolutely stunning!!!

A new release by Jordi Savall on Alia Vox. I’ve only heard symphony 1 so far, and I already love it.

 

I’ve been savoring this album, listening to a symphony a day, and I again urge you - run, don’t walk, and buy this album at only $10.99 on Qobuz for a 3-disc set at 24/88.2.

Enjoy it! For me it’s with a cask strength single malt. 😉

We are watching Hamilton right now.  I will move it to the server tonight.  With Sublime+ it was like $6.    Cannot have enough Beethoven!

I have discovered the South African pianist Moses Taiwa Molelekwa shamefully late in my llfe. He died in a tragedy some twenty years ago at age only 27. Even then, he was great enough to be considered by some to be an heir to Abdullah Ibrahim. My plan for the next day or so is to listen to all his albums that are on Tidal. I started with this live performance, which is damn good.

Not really an album of the evening this evening, just browsing my library a little bit. Had to listen to this album.

Have you got some info to help others find this?  My facial recognition software isn't good enough 8^)

Thanks,

Sorry, I have been a little bit careless...

Thanks, this is a great album.  I lost the original album, then lost the cd.  I had forgotten how much I liked this session.

The hi-res 2019 50th anniversary edition. Sounds simply stunning on my newly optimized system. Hard to believe it is a 50 year old recording:

I managed to get my CD ripped before I lost it! But Qobuz also comes to the rescue; it's streaming there.

Web Web is a German spiritual jazz “supergroup”. On this 2018 album they have moved a bit toward world music by including the Moroccan vocalist Majid Bekkas on some of the songs.

Here's an excellent recording by super-gifted musicians I first learned about today, when Roon recommended the album. Jazz is a big umbrella, folks!
