Posted by: Richard Dane on 01 January 2013

Lots of chilling fog here, so your advice is well-taken Debs.

On vinyl.  Very good music!

A new Akiva just installed by David "The Master" Wilson (my old one was really worn out after 7 years).  Pumpkin infused apple cider.  Life is good tonight.

I'm giving up on Shostakovich' symphonies... I just don't connect with any of these works.

Much rather have this. Fresh performance from a relatively unknown orchestra and a rising star conductor.

 

Cheers,

Hi Graeme, yes I spotted your "best of" thread. I've added my first contribution to it! I can't wait to see other members thoughts. There are so many best of "best of's"!

Another new addition to my collection. Enjoying the first play (with an interlude to watch Chelsea v Arsenal)!

Another Bruckner 7, Haitink's second recording for Philips and quite rare. One of Philips' last analogue recordings, it sounds fantastic.

 

Cheers,

A different mastering - so quite different from what I used to know....., but not per definition worse than the old ones - like with a lot of other bands
