seems to be a bit of a Bowie vibe this weekend.

At last got my hands on the 1990 remastered version of this. First time I've been able to listen through the whole album on cd.


must get my hands on the rest of these.

Jeff,

So far, after listening to the Schumann disc twice, I much prefer Stern's Bach recordings. Despite the fact that her romantic style of playing is closer to Schumann's music the magic and sparkle are in the Bach's albums. What do you think?

Haim

The vibe wasn't there for me I'm afraid.

And thanks to you, Oliver, you first made me aware of this duo and several had posted the new one with favorable comments. Enjoying it very much.

Of the ones I have I like them most in this order: Bach preludes, Chopin solo, Chopin duo and then the Schumann, but the Schumann is something completely new/unknown to my ears. I generally play them all when I am in the mood to listen to her. The other Bach works are not available by download so will have to get the discs someday.
