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?

Just dug this out after watching some Natalie song videos.

Today I've finally got round to a couple of discs of live concerts that a friend from another forum sent me: Mackerras conducting Janacek's Glagolitic Mass and violin concerto in a live concert from 2004 with the Brno State Philharmonic Orchestra and a nicely laid back reading of Brahms second symphony from Jochum and the VPO from a 1982 concert. Sadly neither are available commercially (though both conductors have recorded the works in question), which are well worth picking up in and of themselves.

And just now Elgar's the Music Makers from an EMI budget box of his major choral works conducted by Boult (I'm particularly looking forward to the Kingdom).

regards, Tam

Good morning, a quick listen (with lightly ringing ears from last nights concert) whilst eating breakfast and contemplating cutting the lawns..

Do love the Enigma on this, it sounds, structurally different yet familiar.

Just been loaned a copy as a recommendation so here goes a first spin.

quick edit... Finding it nice, but some of the percussion elements are very poorly recorded and engineered the brush work in particular seems unrealistically pushed in the mix

Blood Sweat and Tears. The classic second album, on a remastered CD.

Freddie Hubbard - Breaking Point. Start quite discordantly but ends with a hauntingly uplifting final track.

Regards

Gerry Mulligan's excellent 'What is There to Say?', and before that The Stranglers debut - nothing like a contrast!!

And next, the new Tord Gustavsen.
