What are you listening to right now? (VOL I)

Posted by: Tam on 06 June 2005

Anyway, to kick things off, I'm currently, and probably for most of the rest of this week, listening to Radio 3's Beethoven Experience. They're doing one of the piano concertos at the moment and (number 2 with Glenn Gould). Anyway, the experience thing probably needs its own thread, but, even on this cheapo radio it's proving fairly enjoyable.

So, what are you listening to right now?

I am reading now and enjoying very much Shalev's 'The Blue Mountain'.


I guess you'll like it.
It's a little masterpiece!
At the moment i'm reading Jared Diamond's "The third chimpanzee".
A very interesting and involving book to read!

Ciao Haim and buona sera!

Hey, instead of being (a little) frustrated about Bollanis ECM debut, I decided to listen to the great predecessor


and the world is round, again...

I have listened to this box this evening, and I think the quality of at least the two first CD's is on level with some of the best ordinary Nick Cave CD's. A lot of excellent material from this man.

The thing I do not like about this CD is there seems to be some strange noise (other than the piano) throughout it, in time with the music.

It is not percussion per se but almost like it and annoys me. Do you hear the same.

Adrian,

This is a typical problem with a high end system (252 and up), you hear everything. On the other hand, with my NAIT you hear only music...

Seriously, I had no immediate urge to listen to Bollani again, but I promise to do so and report.

Have a good Sunday.

Haim


Haim - I hear it on my nait as well and in the car. Just cannot make out what it is. Let me know what you think. It does get on my nerves.

Bruckner symphony 8 performed by Kubelik and the Bavarian RSO. Especially the final movement is stunning!
