  1. Nice. Definitely interested and glad I did not go for the bootleg.

    I never but bootlegs and hardly own an unauthorized release but must admit I fell for the Alice Coltrane Berkeley Community Theatre release and ordere a copy from fnac.fr. I have a feeling they are not going to deliver as planned shipping time is somewhere in april... and it's not in print.  Its an amazing record that deserves an official release.

    Anna Gourari plays Sofia Gubaidulina "Ciaccona" (Decca) 2005 .... unfortunately the only track feat this composer, the remainder being written by Alexander Scriabin (expertly performed, but not what you are looking for .... me believe) ....

    Thanks. Will definitely give it a try. Listening to more Mompou and like it very much. I’ll keep spinning them. Sometimes it takes a moment to click

  3. Thanks again. Listened to Scriabin, Ligeti, Mompou. I like it. Still not really what I am looking for. Maybe Philip Glass is the best reference. Already added some John Cage for that reason thanks Jim. Also some Steve Reich and Terry Riley. No idea what to expect but just used some internet tips. I already know Pärt but still have to find that solo piano stuff. Thanks for that. Why would people state it’s wrong to like an artist? That’s silly. 

    Than the ECM: I know some of that. Both Bollani and Tsabrapoulos are not really my kind of thing. I sold the cds I had. The Messiaen is one yet to explore so thanks Mark will ad that to my Spotify list.

    I realize I am a demanding person, sorry for that

    Thanks Pim, I had no idea that's the way to do it. I've always tilted the bottle and glass to reduce the head, I shan't anymore 😃

    It’s worth a try but in the imo one should drink it as one like it best :)

    The design of the glass tells you all you need to know... That's why Belgians tend to be fairly religious about serving all beers from the proper glass... (And some of those habits are honored north of the border as well... As seen from our tiny glimpse into Pim's household)

    I have got quite a few but I am unable to keep up my glasses with all of the different brands I like ;) if o haven’t got it I take one that has the same shape that’s what it’s all about of course

    I'm interested why you pour the Duvel with so much head (foam).

    I know that in Europe beers are not poured from the bottle like we do in the UK but that's all head and no beer 😃

    That’s how it should be poured Mark ;) check out google images and the Duvel website. The foam has much taste itself and the combination of a little of that with some of the beer is very nice. And it’s actually gone pretty soon….

  6. With classical music I tend to like solo piano stuff most. I love Chopin, enjoy Debussy and of course Erik Satie. Not very strange as he was an inspirator for Mal Waldron. Also into Philip Glass. So I am looking more for this kind of music. I would describe it as dark, moody, melancholic and with deep emotioneel feel. Also a bit minimalistic. My wife calls it depressing but she has no taste in music (better taste in men of course). I'd say this composition by Satie has it all:

    Any listening tips to continue the journey and make my wife feel more depressed?
