Oh, I am sure that we can find you something on Craig's List... Just let us know when you are starting your search.
By the way, Tharaud's Ravel is just outstanding. I have a feeling that Hewitt's disc is going to collect serious dust around here.

Haim and Doug, I love seeing/reading your posts and our paths are most often different, but...

Something you perhaps might try:
Amiina "Kurr"


from amazon: Amiina not only sound like Arvo Pärt in a music box, they actually play a music box. It's among the thrift-store instruments the Icelandic quartet employs, which include wine glasses, bowed saws, antique synthesizers, and--yes, even the violins, viola, and cello that they originally started with. We've been hearing Amiina for a few years now, adding strings and additional quirkiness to the last few albums by fellow Icelanders Sigur Rós. While Sigur Rós work in epic electric dimensions, Amiina work in the delicate spaces of fragile sounds and folk refrains. On Kurr, their first full-length album, they manage to be quaint and exotic, like a modern vision set in a dusty portrait from the past. Amiina's mixture of classicism and humor owes a debt to the Penguin Café Orchestra. But while the late Simon Jeffe's outfit had the air of erudite wit and debonair grace, Amiina are cuter, musically and visually. Like kids in the attic, they exude a more innocent, yet exploratory charm. Whether plucking pastoral electric guitar lines and singing a schoolyard chant on "Rugla," bowing saws and tapping glockenspiels on "Seoul," or actually playing their classical strings, Amiina enchant like a peek inside an elven gathering under the roots of Yggdrasil. --John Diliberto

Me too, so good to see it receive an endorsement from a man of good taste. Maybe after my bank account has recovered from Christmas.

Still relaxing before going to the in-laws for the December 5th Sint Nicolaas celebration.
While ripping 6 Van Halen CD's for later enjoyment.

My favourite rhythm section back together after a few years apart, with some lovely songs. Have seen this called 'The missing Yes album'. Wonderful.

Black Triangle

Recommended by a friend, very nice guitar jazz/flamenco.
