It's a shame it's only a download. I don't do ipods and my puter isn't hooked up on any DAC currently. <sigh> 'suppose this is the way of the future eh?

 

Haven't heard the FlyLo or Cosmogramma, but 1983 is a fun listen ( particularly on a vinyl ) Altho, if I have to pick, i prefer the L.A.

 

I've been off the *funky stuff* for a while and trying going *legit*. ( in case you haven't noticed )

 

Thanks! I was on my usual forum summer holiday, that's all, but I somehow ended up replying to a post here a couple of days ago, so here I am.

 

The only Flying Lotus I know from before Los Angeles is 'Tea Leaf Dancers' - a great track from an ep - I posted the video a while back for keanoking, as it features Andreya Triana. I'll have to look out for 1983.

 

Yep, I'd noticed you posting classical music of late (loving your label shots) and I very occasionally make a note of recordings posted by yourself, Doug, Haim, EJS (and others) if it's something I'm familiar with. I saw your 'Pictures at an Exhibition' post this week - I know that one from music lessons at school!

Even Boxcutter's got the funk itch these days. Loving the almost 'Miami Vice' feel to this one.

Johann Sebastian Bach

Keyboard: Steinway & Sons Model D

Stereo

 

Partita No. 4 in D major, BWV 828

Partita No. 6 in e minor, BWV 830

Johann Sebastian Bach, Pianist: Jeffrey Biegel

Keyboard: Steinway & Sons Model D

Stereo

 

Toccata in d minor, BWV 913

Toccata in e minor, BWV 914

Partita for Keyboard no 2 in c minor, BWV 826

French Suite no 5 in g major, BWV 816

WTC, Book 1, Prelude and Fugue in D major, BWV 850

WTC, Book 1, Prelude and Fugue in F sharp major, BWV 858

 

From the opening chords of the d minor Toccata you can clearly hear the lovely bass tone that has not been duplicated by any other instrument since 1853.  It isn't the only Bach recording I would ever own but it is a nice recital here.  Biegel instills a joy in his playing and is quite inventive with his ornamentation.  I think this meets the main objective of music and in this case Bach.  That is, to actually play it and give joy to people.  I really, really, really want to learn a Toccata or two.  I've enjoyed them for years and really would suggest that if you haven't heard the Toccatas that they are very worthwhile too.  Angela Hewitt is a nice choice if you have her complete Bach.
