    Hindall Butts

    That's more information than one would expect. Much thanks! The Tom Lord Disco misspells his first name Hindai, btw, probably a typo in the database.
  2. Sorry to say this, but I kind of lost the taste for these. It goes into the sales box, like the one I listened to next:
  3. https://www.discogs.com/release/19949926-Sunday-Night-Orchestra-Overcast-The-Music-Of-Ed-Partyka
  4. Next, the only way for me to listen to Wagner operas.
  5. Excellent recording on a somewhat more crisp sounding piano than the often preferred Walter copies. Very good impression of how these pieces might have sounded when played by a Haydn pupil in Vienna at the end of the 18th century.
  6. It was recorded for Riverside, but among the albums - about half of his Riverside output - that Cannonball acquired after Riverside's folding and took to Capitol, which reissued some of them. Somebody else her might have more detaled knowledge.
  7. By far the best recording of violin sonatas from this era on modern instruments I have ever heard. Precision, clarity, and humor, no expressive overload. The Vorisek sonata is an overlooked gem. Reinhard Goebel contributed the excellent liner notes and was consulted by the artists. Highly recommended.
  8. Bought a bottle of this one on the occasion of our wedding anniversary - very tasty!
  9. Yes to both. Sad news. R.I.P.
  10. Perfectly played, sung, and recorded! Has a mostly sleepless (last) night, and put on headphones to listen to these:
  11. The weekend bottle - by far my favoutite rosé
  12. Main problem is, if you buy one of the boxes, you want to have them all. Six boxes is a lot of music, but all of it is fun to listen to. I succumbed and got me all of them over the years.
  13. Excellent new release! Indispensable for anyone interested in the genre. The booklet essay is first class. The music is more "modern" than what we know from Abel, bordering on early classical. These were his last compositions before his health failed due to many years of alcohol abuse.
  14. They turned up today - two each of the four were filed in different places. What was I thinking?
