Album of the Evening

[The Computer Audiophile]

Continuing a magical Monday, with Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus. Recorded and released in 1960, remastered in 2022. While this seems like a live album, including Mingus talking to the "crowd," it's a studio recording

I searched there first. I looked under every single header for Charles Mingus albums and it's simply not there. You replied and I decided to check again, searched Charles Mingus and could not find it. Finally, I decided to check Latest Releases and there it is...

 

I should send a note to Qobuz about that.

Schumann has been taking up a large part of my listening time in recent weeks. I'm curious, does your location affect your musical experience? Perhaps yes, perhaps not, but in Germany, where I am now, I experience Schumann's music differently than I did previously at home. The version of Schumann's piano concerto performed by the great Romanian pianist Radu Lupu is superb. As for Grieg's Piano Concerto, Lupu stands up to any comparison, on a par with his brilliant compatriot Dinu Lipatti.

Lupu is one of the few "great" pianists I was fortunate to listen to live.

 

I had not realised that he passed away just 3 days ago...

This is good to know. I remember some months back there was discussion about the MFSL. As a result I ordered it via ebay (not cheap). In the end I was not that impressed. I will go on with this HDTT version :)

Wow!!! Just wow!!!
