Nice Belgian pop with psychedelic sixties influences. Some listeners hear Beatles and Beach Boys.

Thanks for this one Bruce, I like what I hear. Definite similarity to PJ Harvey, which is no bad thing in my book.

After waiting an eternity for DG to release Sinopoli's Bruckner recordings (he recorded 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 and 9), started hunting for them on the 2nd hand market. These recordings have legendary status in some quarters.

EJ,

 

That's great! I bet Sinopoli's Bruckner would be interesting.

I've still got a stack of Bruckner Symphonies I need to get to yet.

 

Anyway, I am still on the Beethoven Piano Concerto kick and this is my latest CD purchase.

For my first box of Mozart symphonies, it had to be the Concertgebouw Orchestra.

George's favourite Piano Concerto No.1.

Posted on: 23 August 2012 by George Fredrik

Dear Kuma,

 

The Fur Elise was Schnabel's first successful [i.e. released] recording for EMI, and was the twelfth side on the set containing the First Concerto. I used to play this on a little HMV wind-up gramophone, and played the Concerto and Fur Elise till they were grooved out!

 

ATB from George

Posted on: 23 August 2012 by kuma

George, 

 

That's so sweet!

 

For a long time I couldn't stand to listen to 'For Elise' from the over exposure for piano practice which was a typical first recital tune for young kids. ( which I had a horrible stage fright in that never made it to the stage after practicing every day )
