that's great (really) you got to see this live I've found Berman a bit po' faced elsewhere especially in his Prokofiev cycle but Cage-- and these pieces especially-- are better suited to his chops / temperament (intellectually his Prokofiev is fine but...) On disc Antonis Anissegos is recently hep

Weinberg / Vainberg (Clap Hands Here Comes Mieczyslaw)
MomsMobley replied to MomsMobley's topic in Classical Discussion
Weinberg solo cello preludes / Feigelson on Naxos is actually the same Feigelson in the old / estimbale Vainberg series on Olympia, a very welcome reissue then of quite underknown works. this is Claes Gunnarson in the cello fantasia from the ongoing (?) Chandos series -

later Suicide is pretty horrid, Rev a fount of bad ideas / poor sounds & Vega barely sounds he like he's trying; he does't sound that much better here but he fills the role with Pan Sonic who never 'phoned it in' vega obscured his age a LONG time, his art gallery shows where noted in early '70s along w/ early Suicide, the 1960s are his mystery decade, presumably worked straight jobs but ???

What Classical Music Are You Listening To?

to the extent a harpsichordist can be 'hyped'... Mehan Esfahani deserves it. this is marketing / promo but I can't fault it for being so; his new Goldberg Var is excellent also. -
1000% yes. The packaging, I should have mentioned, is exceptional too-- it's not some 'cap box' like many of the classical sets but rather a hard cardboard case akin to some of the old Fantasy sets like Monk / Prestige, Sonny / Contemporary but the discs & booklet are in a slide out 'tray'-ish thing. Or, from the outside it looks like a thicker / squatter variation of the first pressing Miles / Sony sets. I mention this because unusual and also kudos to Erato really taking care with both the presentation and sound. That's not always true with their parent 'Warner Classics', let alone some of the shoddy-- albeit inexpensive-- Sony / RCA sets. (A company which is certainly capable of better-- am I correct to recall you snagged the swank Monteux box a while back?)

C.P.E. 'The Sepia' Bach (Specifically)
MomsMobley replied to MomsMobley's topic in Classical Discussion
Spanyi from BIS Volume 26 of the solo keyboard works it takes a while to understand CPE rhetoric and the range of possibilities within it but as it seems more people are discovering, he's a GIANT. It's gratifying if not often to my taste to see more pianists taking the repertoire on also, including the estimable 'integrale' by Ana-Marija Markovina. -
Capaciously talented and amiable genius-- there ain't many of the latter. Estimable poet and calligrapher also. Besides Miles, the only record with Keith Jarrett I feel compelled to hear let alone own (sorry Dewey). Had and hopefully has more "currency" than some other cotemporaries because of his top work for percussionists who were / are grateful for the repertoire. Grab anything you can for $6-7 or less & proceed from there. As former academic music student yourself you might enjoy this-- http://www.ojaifestival.org/my-memories-of-lou-harrison/ *** *** ***
