Burmester Burmester - Art the ear - Vorführungs CDs

I own the original Burmester Art for the ear - Burmester - Art for the ear - Vorführungs CD 2 and 3 but I only have a Chinese made copy of number 1. I am very uncertain if the contents of that number 1 is identical to the real Burmeser number 1. So I was hoping somebody here owning the real Burmester number 1 could confirm its contents. I know both Mike Lavigne and Steve Williams own it and Steve also promised to try to find it and give me the contents but I guess it must have slipped his mind. So to anyone who owns it can you please help me?

Here is the original thread I created on the subject:

Happy Birthday, Steve!

The one you are talking about with Anne-Sophie von Otter is Burmester CD 2.

This is the contents I have on each of the three Burmester CD's. The number 1 I have is a Chinese remaster claimed to be of the Burmester CD1 but I am pretty unsure if the contents is the same as the real original Burmester CD1. Almost all tracks on this copy is from the Norwegian record company Kirkelig Kulturverksted and some of the tracks seem to be released on its original album after the Burmester CD1 was released:

CD 1:
1 - Kari Bremnes - Sangen om tornehavn
2 - Ray Charles & Natalie Cole - Fever
3 - Mickey Hart - Udo chant
4 - Aage Kvalbein - Adagio from concerto do Aranjuez
5 - Muddy Waters - Good morning little school girl
6 - Andersen, Alnæs, Carstensen - Sommerflørt
7 - Ole Paus & Norsk Kammerkor - Som en storm
8 - Unknown artist - Opera Overture
9 - Sondre Brattland - O du hellige (O Sanctissima)
10 - Milonga del Angel - Tango for 3
11 - Lill Lindfors - Månen

Please pay attention to the fact the contents shown on the cover of Burmester CD2 actually is very inaccurate. It doesn't show the actual track and artist. I have done the research myself to come to the track list shown below. You will not find my track list anywhere else on the net. Everything else on the net is wrong. On this list there is only one track I am not certain about and that is track #7. It is not called Linderkirsche Berlin. Linderkirsche Berlin is the name of the organ played on that CD. I am trying to figure out which track it is which is included on the Burmester CD2 and its name. I don't know yet. The original CD this track is taken from is this one: http://www.amazon.de/Max-Reger-Orge...6845881&sr=8-1&keywords=Lindenkirche+(Berlin)

Please compare the track list on the cover in this picture and the one I put together below:

2 - Paco de Lucia - La barrossa
3 - Hans Theessink - Late last night
4 - Michael Höltzel & Philharmonia de Camera (George Frederick Händel) - Konzert für harfe und orchester b-dur

Happy birthday Steve - unfortunately I only own CD2 and CD3.

You mean CD2 and CD3? Nobody I have ever met except possibly Mike Lavigne owns CD1. Mike are you around. I seem to rememvber you writing somewhere that you own CD1. Is that correct?

Steve,

It is CD2:


Take a look at the track listing for all the Burmeser CDs I have put togheter in a post above.

All the best,
Roy

Thanks, Mike. Unfortunatly that track has skipped me, but I will surely not pass on it now! Thanks for the recomendation.

Maybe then you can please help me with one detail. As you can see from my track listing of Burmester CD 2 above, the track listing differs from whats on the cover of the original Burmester CD 2. This is because the track listing on the original is not accurate. It shows the artist and the name of the CD but not of the actual track. I have managed to find the track name of almost all the tracks except #7. Can you please fill in the gap and let me know the full name of track #7 from the Burmester CD2 by taking the track name from the original recording of that track. The original recording is this one as far as I have learned: http://www.dailyaudiophile.com/burmester-cd-iii-demo-disc-review/

I have CD1 but I need to verify that it is indeed a genuine Chinese remaster of the original Burmester CD1. Here are pictures of the front and the back of the one I have:





Steve, I will include a burned copy with the collection I am sending you if you are intereted.

All the best,
Roy
