Not sure if this has been posted yet - Klaus Schulze with Lisa Gerrard (Dead Can Dance/Gladiator etc) have a new album out recorded live last year - Rheingold. His first concert for several years.Well worth a listen.

I've just got back home from a concert of solo piano by the jung Bojan Zulfikarpasic. It was an odd concert, meaning that no two even rhythms were played in two hours. A curious, stimulating melange of strict jazz and balcanic joyfulness.While...

Veteran UK jazz/fusion trumpeter Ian Carr has died after a long series of illnesses apparently. Those of you who remember Colosseum (and the US equivalents - BS&T etc I suppose) will recall that Nucleus were in the same sort of category in 1970-71. When I finally got my hands on 2 or 3 of their Vertigo LPs in the 80s I was astonished, not only by the quality of music composition and ensemble playing for the day, but chiefly by the sound quality (well, this is a hifi site) - I've not heard...

During a recent visit to a friends (JN) house I heard a track from this LP record. Exceptional sound quality and material from a 1968 slab of vinyl. I bought the CD which isn't bad but have since acquired an original copy of the LP. Needless to say...

i've spent the weekend listening to mahler's second, both the boulez above, an a stokowski/london on rca (an lp), that is no longer available. the stokowski is a super-romantic barn burner that probably does better service to the period, but the...

I have been enjoying his two accoustic albums - superb.....Can anyone recommend any of his studio albums?
mikeeschmanPosted: 25 February 2009Last Updated: 26 February 2009
do you know the instruments when you hear them?http://www.bbc.co.uk/orchestras/guide/and buy a copy of Britten's "Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra". It's a great piece, and there are many good recordings available.

Hi Guys,I was flicking through some of the "discussions" in the Audio and DA rooms and then came to what I think is the most civilised of all the rooms on this forum. But I'm always a little perplexed by the realative inactivity of this room and as my...

Anyone here heard of her? I just discovered her 28 minutes into Bob Harris' Radio 2 Saturday show. Check out 'Nickel and a Nail' on iPlayer.Bloody fabulous. Ruthie has a great bluesy/soulful voice and Robben Ford on guitar sets up a fantastic groove....

Hi all,I noticed in another forum, there was a thread for links to new/less well known artists that appear on you-tube. Obviously the quality is not so good, but it does allow you get a flavour of music and singers that they may not of heard...
