jiminlogansquare Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 A nice selection of works by a composer who is new to me. And featuring baritone Roderick Williams, who is not new to me and who I think is just marvelous in everything I've heard him sing, this included! Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post sphinxsix Posted February 22 Popular Post Share Posted February 22 I'm on aspirine and on Mozart/Bach. Mostly Mozart's take on arrangements of some of preludes and fugues from WTC . The piece played on 2 fortepianos is great! (24-96) Michaelb4 and graham 1 1 What’s true of all the evils in the world is true of plague as well.

pdvm Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 I know it's not an album... but this performance of Bottesini's double bass concerto is the best I've heard. She is an amazing musician. rando 1 Link to post Share on other sites
rando Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 @pdvm Please suggest a recording of this composition you would rate highly*. Went from thrilled at seeing Bottesini, to noticing it was a competition (dry technical perfection), back to enjoyment. A few concerns per her stature imposing physical limitations did crop up in technical sections [03:22]. As a student her technique is quite impressive and unique. Excels and only rarely falls to the level of overcoming when listening with ears instead of eyes. Thank you (a second time) for posting this. *Loose request, far from complaint or insistence.

Popular Post Temporal_Dissident Posted February 23 Popular Post Share Posted February 23 Daft Punk split up today, in probably the classiest way possible. Like everyone, I know the hit "Get Lucky" from this album. Listen this afternoon and the entire thing is great. Original dance music, recorded with studio musicians (not samples). Check out Omar Hakim's drumming (from about 5:40 onward) on track #3 "Giorgio by Moroder." That song tells the story of a pioneering producer that is worth checking out. Settling in for an evening of mic testing to further refine DSP filters. lamode, sphinxsix, The Computer Audiophile and 3 others 4 2 Roon > dCS Bartok > Parasound JC 2BP > Parasound JC 5 > Wilson Yvette Link to post Share on other sites
