Rossini’s Barber of Seville overture (not written for Bugs Bunny cartoon exclusively.

This one is for vocals.

I am always curious to listen to tracks on my system when there is a video that I like. So here is the same track (from Qobuz) on my modest speakers:

Many children, young and old, have been introduced to the joys of classical music by watching Walt Disney's Fantasia and the Looney Tune cartoons.

This is a nice string trio by a young group.

That sounds great. I have this record and really like the companion record with the contemporary composers. Apparently both recordings are included in the one CD.

Janus Starker survived WW2 Labor Camps. He once walked out on a performance because he was not allowed to smoke at a venue.
This is 1965 recording which is still the ‘gold standard for crystalline tone and zero sentimentality.’

This presents the tone and energy of the cello. Fabulous.

Here is Shostakovich Cello Concerto NO.1 on Vinyl - Cadenza and a little more

Please excuse the sirens from the emergency responders driving by in the early part of the video.

Best wishes,
Don

Excellent recording... and very interesting speakers too. I don't believe I'm familiar with those.
Best wishes,

Kedar, what recording is this? Thank you

I've really been enjoying listening to your videos... great sound!
I believe I have this recording on vinyl as well as the Starker - Bach Cello Suites.
I might have to include them in my listening this weekend

Best wishes,
Don

That part from around 6th minute onwards sounds great.

Thank you, Kedar!

I had only intended to originally record the cadenza, but like you say... right about the 6 minute mark I was getting so wrapped up into the music that I couldn't stop recording it. I'm glad that you enjoyed it

Best wishes,
Don

Thanks Don. I bought the LP with the two cello concertos from Amazon. Different cover from this one with the symphonies. I appreciate it.

Another Starker solo different piece

Hi Yan your system is indeed excellent and the Beethoven trio is also playing great.

I have noticed on your recordings there is an ambience, in a good way, and the digital LP of Shostakovich 8 is also sounding quite analog. I think your Zyx is doing a lot here. TAD drivers do have lot of insight. You will surely record some of these again on DST, but can you please record a couple on vdh? Especially the Shostakovich 8, and possibly the Beethoven string trio?

 

[PeterA]

@Urowolf , I know you have the Micro Seiki SX8000 II, and I think the Lamm LP1. What arm are you using?

 

[Urowolf]

Amazing sound. If not Western Electric, it’s at least WE adjacent. I get hypnotized by this design.
