Final discs, 7 and 8 of 8. Mainly Obrecht and Prioris, but disc 8 also has pieces by Josquin, de la Rue and Brumel, among others.

[T.D.]

The "Earthquake Mass" is an excellent piece!

This disc could have been mentioned in the Dufay/Josquin thread.

It's all Bach. Well Tempered Clavier; Inventions & Toccatas; Suites; 6 Partitas & Chromatic Fantasy

Disc 2. I'll probably get flamed in some sectors for listening to this, but I wanted to compare versions (TS and Huelgas Ens.) of Brumel's "Earthquake Mass".

[mikeweil]

Yesterday's listening - both excellent performances.

Been quite obsessed with the two Janacek string quartets recently.  The version I've got is wonderfully played by the Janacek Quartet (who should know what they're doing with this music...) but on a quite noisy old LP, would like to add a good CD version to my collection.  Any recommendations?
