Coming up, seems to be official: Would that be the same material as in the Mosaic box? Not that I really care, I've got my Frémeaux Django, so there's that, but still I'm somewhat curious as I just stumbled over this on amazon.fr

Chris Sheridan (liners to "Young and Foolish") also has 1922 as year of birth. Not that I knew, not that it really matters ...

Foolish to be too sad ... he lasted for more than a lifetime and gave us music for at least nine lives! But still, this is a hard one to take. Thank you for all the great music!

At least we won't get in a terrible row then, Lon! (just only realized her mother was in Godard's great "Masculin - féminin"!) And I'm much on the "Casino Royale" side, as opposed to "Quantum of solace" - much better story, better paced, less flashy effects, and just generally more meat to the bone, it seemed to me.

Send me a check over a couple thousand £ so I can attend various concerts, m'kay? And send a few months of time and some good orchestras and conductors along! Seriously: I wouldn't consider buying the box at all if I wasn't at least somewhat interested. But seeing the symphonies performed live - I don't think so. Classical concerts over here cost an arm and a leg, and I don't think Shostakovich often makes the programmes, either.

So, will this save the Euro?

Very cool indeed! Disc VI: Mingus At Monterey, September 18, 1965 1. The Arts Of Tatum And Freddie Webster (E) 9:33 (Charles Mingus) 2. Don’t Let It Happen Here (E) 9:11 (Charles Mingus) 3. They Trespass The Land Of The Sacred Sioux (E) 8:39 (Charles Mingus) 4. When The Saints Go Marching In (E) 4:30 (K.E. Purvis-J.M. Black) guess I'll put a pre-order in, too!

Great news indeed! The Monterey set I got mostly because of that Mingus track (there's some other interesting music spread on the three discs). I wonder if they found more, unreleased material from that concert? Guess not or Cuscuna would have stated so.

Sorabji - Ogdon is unavailable, it seems ...

Thanks Moms and D.D. - will see, I might eventually get some cheap symphonies box (Barshai/WDR) and maybe the string quartets (Borodins or Fitzwilliams there? I tend to the former, but it seems their disc with the final two is kind of hard to find). Just to get myself a better picture ... but I'm in no rush!

where did you find this info? i've been digging around for it and I can't find it anywhere. not that I doubt you personally or anything I just wanted to know where I can find some info about release dates and when I can expect to get these in the US. really excited about the Douglas and Abrams sets. I received an email from CAM Jazz on 7/31. The release date according to the email is Oct. 9th. Yep, straight from the source! Took the JPGs from that email (and uploaded them myself again, so the links should last a while - and yes, they came in those different sizes).

I'd horsewhip Schaap if I had a horse. But a horsewhip is much cheaper than a horse! Didn't know about that screw up - damn!

Yeah, so then "oggi" was a misleading transcription for Italian-savvy folks ... but since the guy wants to boogie, who cares (uh, I just see it was "oggy", so that's that!)

is that "cuu-oggi" as in "aggie" or as in italian "oggi"?

complete studio albums - that would imply that all the material released later on some LP series is not included?

Where to look for the piano trios? I've heard a recording with Argerich many years ago, if memory doesn't play tricks on me (I think it was just one of Shostakovich's trios, paired with a trio by some other composer, but again I'm not sure). Might have been this one, but the cover doesn't ring a bell: Nothing quite pulls me there (well, Kremer a tiny bit, maybe, but ...) - where else to look?

One more I missed, sorry! All the best! :party:

Sorry for being late, Lon! Wish you all the very best! :party:

Fauré - Complete Chamber Music for Strings and Piano (5CD) - €9.54 on amazon.it Haven't heard it but read a very favorable review and gave it to my mother as a gift (cost three times as much three months ago!) - probably she was too busy to listen yet, but at this price, I'll just get it for me as well anyway! That baroque box looks excellent, btw! A nice companion to the "Lumières" box, I'm sure.

Now, sometimes - only sometimes - I wish there was someone loud enough to drown out the bulls hit that comes from your fingers!

I very much enjoy Gulda! Has Hantaï only recorded book 1 so far?

Yay! And some Swiss Kriss, too!

This is off-topic here of course, but I've recently been recommended by D.D. to check out Blandine Rannou's Rameau and it's wonderful. Go to www.discplus.ch and put in "ZZT-010301" into the full text search field and get it for 10€ (plus shipping, which of course might make that a less attractive offer than others you might find).

Thanks Lon! A friend let me have what I think is an EMI recording (Jellinek/Legge, Abbey Road, 1957-59) - haven't yet listened to it though.

Okay - that might mean I'm interested then.... & Friends sounds fine to me in it's available edition but having new remasters of "Let My Chillun" and "Epitaph" might be nice indeed!
