In flight entertainment of the day.

Too bad. I hope the software survives for a while the future MacOs updates.

My first ever Jazz album, bought many moons ago.

I never had the pleasure to hear him live, but I have many of his recordings, and always found him to be a thoughtful conductor, very closely connected to the music. He's done some very good recordings particularly with the Bavaria Radio Symphony.

And we are back on: https://www.eclassical.com/pages/christmas19.html Today the only album I know here is the Brautigam Mozart, which is enjoyable (although I have a slight preference for Bezuidenhout in these concertos).

My favorite of the Fischer/Mahler cycle.

And here's my review (with a free Nutcracker review thrown in on top, because, well you know, it's Christmas soon...) https://musicophilesblog.com/2019/11/23/two-beautiful-new-albums-for-the-christmas-season-from-jordi-savall-and-vladimir-jurowski-the-messiah-and-the-nutcracker/

And here's my latest addition to the topic, reviewing a brand new Nutcracker and Messiah. https://musicophilesblog.com/2019/11/23/two-beautiful-new-albums-for-the-christmas-season-from-jordi-savall-and-vladimir-jurowski-the-messiah-and-the-nutcracker/ Spoiler alert, both are very very good.

This just came out, Hallelujah! Streaming from Qobuz.

I've written quite a bit about my favourite Christmas music on my blog, though more in the classical and jazz genres: https://musicophilesblog.com/category/music/seasonal-music/christmas-music/

Checking out this recent concert to commemorate the ending of the 1st world war 100 years ago on Qobuz.

Sorry wrong forum. This should be in the A+ thread.
