What's Spinning Tonight?

Cool stuff. This is the version I have:

 
Hi Long time no post on this superb thread ...

I am a fan of Elgar ..big fan..

Listening to this beautiful piece: Elgar Violin Concerto by Hilary Hahn. This is an emotionally charged piece and Hahn pulls it off with restraint, control and pace. But not disconnected or "cold" as some have said about this recording .. Recommended. Sound is OK .. I don't care enough about the sound these days with such beautiful music and interpretation. If that is getting old . I welcome it :) ... Frankly I have made the past few years a conscious effort to not fall in the distraction of always listening to how it sounds ... a trap too many audiophiles fall into. Music is what the hobby is about to me

I must add that on the Vaughan Williams ... No restraint but so lyrical. She is the Real Deal :). Will buy a few more of her recordings. I don't have (yet) her Bach violin concerti.
