What are you currently listening to (Classical)?

The Piano Quintet. As predicted, Fellner is not quite as incisive as Pollini, but it's a fine performance nonetheless.

Just a simple remark John; the guy @ top right has some Tarantino in his profile.
The girl; I like her expression.

Words fail me for how beautiful this playing is - completely spell-binding.

Interesting...have you ever compared to this one which i like?

 

[Bachtoven]

I just received this SACD--

and compared it to the regular release--

While not a night and day difference, the SACD is a bit warmer and reveals a little more room sound.

Good to know! i think the original is excellent, and i am an RBCD guy anyway.

Hey Bachtoven, have you ever listened to the same disc more than once?

Hey Bachtoven, have you ever listened to the same disc more than once?

Jim (still-one ) mentioned before that he listens mostly to new music recordings; he rarely listens twice to the same music.
I think, from my memory; Jim would be able to tell like it exactly is.

i was amazed by the few snips on the website. I am a 16/44 guy and Zanden 4-box digital at that. I have emailed Sound Liaisons to ask if there is a way to download 16/44 from them...at least we get the music this way. I can burn it and play old-skool on the Transport.

Actually, yes, I just don't post it.
