HutchFan Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) Yes sir!!! Same recording, just a different cover. IMO, it's hard to beat Charles Munch's recordings when it comes to Berlioz. His performances sound so deliciously spontaneous and full of vitality. Edited March 13, 2019 by HutchFan Quote

Referentzhunter Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) Akt 1 + 2 Great performance but this ballet becomes very boring without visuals at some points ... Edited March 13, 2019 by Referentzhunter Quote
HutchFan Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 Andrés Segovia - A Centenary Celebration (MCA) Disc 2 - compositions by Albéniz, Tárrega, Granados, Moreno Torroba, Esplá, Ponce, Lauro and Pedrell Incredible. Quote
HutchFan Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 Still bouncing back-and-forth between RVW and Bax. Arnold Bax: The Symphonies / Vernon Handley, BBC Philharmonic (Chandos) Disc 3 - Symphonies Nos. 5 & 6 It's interesting to compare Handley's approach to Bax with Bryden Thomson's earlier cycle. They are very different. Quote

HutchFan Posted March 14, 2019 Report Posted March 14, 2019 Arrived in the mail this evening: My old, yellowing edition of The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs awards this CD with a "rosette." In this case, I agree with their judgment. It's one of the finest RVW recordings I've heard. Quote
