mikeweil Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 Listening to quite the other end of the sound scale, somehow; Excellent new CD, very fine playing, program choices and commentary by the harpsichordist, and excellent sound. Highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Contemporary/Classic Masters. CRS Master Recordings CD 9255 Pieces by Elliot Carter, John Russo, Francois Deveinne, Robert Dusek, John Davison, David Hush, & Carl Harrison. All of the compositions (and all of the composers except Carter, and his piece is an item dating from 1940) are new to me. So far, nothing sucks. But nothing really stands out either.

papsrus Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) Rameau -- Pygmalion & Nelee et Myrthis Les Arts Florissants A pair of one-act operas, the latter of which may be part of an incomplete larger opera-ballet. Those who decide such things can't quite decide. Either way, lovely, lilting stuff, but I wouldn't say it packs a punch in any way.

mikeweil Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 With each listen I am amazed at the high quality of her playing and the intelligent program choices. This time I accidentally hit random play and it still sounds convincing, due to the fact that all but two pieces are in the same key, sol majeur/mineur (g major/minor), which she connects with the roi soleil - so as symbolic key for the sun king. She wrote an excellent essay on the subject a while ago. Great sound to, of the "golden" harpsichord at the Swiss museum at Neuchâtel.

JSngry Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 I'm not always one to naturally bond with Hindemith, but these renditions are pretty bondable. Or maybe it's just my cello ear-fetish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
