What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol.VIII)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 29 December 2011
With 2012 almost upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread. I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.
Anyway, links:

Just finished playing this...
First play and made a good impression, this could be a grower. Declan's song "Sarah" (from his CD "Since Kyabram"), was on the Mojo magazine CD, compiled by Paul Weller, which made be buy both CD's.
Discs 1 to 4 earlier today with most of the core Debussy. Currently on Disc 5 which is centred around the Etudes.
On 12" black stuff from the USA.

I treasure this (and volume I) --- these recordings made me appreciate
Handel's keyboard music as never before.
This should get the day going.
Only an 80's reissue vinyl. But the music is good.

Liking this very much, even if I didn't think that I needed another Beethoven violin concerto
Excellent Recording.
Am giving this another spin, has created a lovely mood to accompany a lovely spring day. Shame that it coincides with spring cleaning 
One of the best 'live' CD/DVD release combo's I am happy to own. Melancholic music can be so uplifting.
Starting with the 1972 recordings of the Brahms Piano Trios & Schumann's 1st Piano Trio with Rubinstein/Szeryng/Fournier. Heading into the Brahms Piano Quartets & Quintet. These are from 1967 and Rubinstein with Guarneri Quartet (part or whole).
A beautiful box set, I will have to revisit it today.
Disc 26: Shostakovich E Minor Piano Trio (1988) with Ax, Stern, Ma and the D Minor Cello Sonata (1987) with Ax & Ma.
MilesSmiles - here is another nice set. I did not have very much Rubinstein or Ma so these two made sense for me.
On Esoteric remastered SACD
