  5. What Classical Music Are You Listening To?

    Brahms: Complete Trios / Beaux Arts Trio, et al (Philips, 2 CDs)

    Last night:
    Piano Trio No. 2 in C, Op. 87

    Today:
    Piano Trio No. 3 in C Minor, Op. 101 and Clarinet Trio in A Minor, Op. 114 (with George Pieterson, cl)

    Like they say, Brahms was always a symphonist, even when he was writing chamber music.  ;) 

    Sublime performances by the Beaux Arts Trio.

    Recorded @ Laeiszhalle Hamburg on May 19th, 1980 (Mahler 5) and Kieler Schloss on November 11th, 1980 (Kindertotenlieder) .... unsurprisingly heartwrenching ....

    As you say, @soulpope, it's no surprise that this performance is superb.  I've never heard it, but I have heard Tennstedt's 1988 live M5 with the London PO.  It's transcendent.

    Now streaming Jolivet's Concerto pour Ondes Martenot et Orchestre -- with Yvonne Loriod -- from this set:

    André Jolivet - Le enregistrement Erato (Warner Classics, 2004, 4 CDs)

    Strange and wonderful music. 

    I have two Jolivet MHS LPs that were licensed from Erato and appear on this set.  But as I listen, I'm wondering, "Is that enough?"  For someone like me, that's the danger of streaming: Often, it makes me want to spring for having the whole enchilada.  

    I suppose I could join the 21st century.  Be content with streaming, stop buying music & building a collection.  . . . Nah.  That's no fun!  :P
