What are you currently listening to (Classical)?

[Kal Rubinson]

Really? I could only find 3 released this year, the one I posted and these two;

From my collection, I see also this, which is subtitled, A Concert at the Ritz during the Belle Époque:

Thank you! I just listened to a few snips of this...and bought the double-album which was just released (Vol 1 and 2 in a single pack). This is an excellent series. They should arrive next week...look forward to listening to the whole!

Someone disinterred a decade old conversation this afternoon that placed Baroque Cello music in mind for some point this evening. Not one bit surprised the quote below is still reflective of your interests. Dragging a quote from one place to another is confounding me this evening so please click on the text.

i too like Cello and baroque. In general, the artists i enjoy are: Bach, CPE Bach (his son), Handel...

Very rarely do I make suggestions here that resulted from anything but directly playing back the disc without distinctly mentioning source of files used. Good advice was given to pursue the high resolution downloads of her albums. Which I followed and failed to mention in this case.

I have no doubts the RBCD will be spectacular on your system. The other versions are easily available should you, with my apologies, find that option salient.

wow...you found that quote! I am glad to see I still agree with myself!

Well I had fun reading through everything. Few weeks back I picked up 8-9 of those Beethoven Bicentennial boxes mentioned.

Amazed at how long some of you have stuck with this place.

I looked for "Belle Epoque" in the title, that's why I didn't find this one but what a nice find, thank you for sharing!

It's a replica from a concert that took place on July 1st 1907 in the Ritz hotel Paris like you said and was organized by the well-known author Marcel Proust.

Copeland: “Billie the Kid”, Colorado Symphony, Andrew Litton

A well played and recorded choice. What selection process lead you to explore this piece among the multitude of choices?

I know you have smaller interest in Classical. So don't worry if it was something a visitor auditioned. Whether you find music prevalent before 1900 something becomes partially enjoyable is of no consequence to how we receive new interests in here. Just glad you decided to explore where we might offer the benefit of some larger interest.

If this is not the album you listened to please correct me.

Beef ! It's what's for dinner.
Hoe-Down from the Rodeo suite.

Copland was a really fine American composer.
So was Samuel Barber. Try his 'School for Scandal'.
So was Duke Ellington. Try his anything he wrote.
