Don`t know this release, but Sofronitsky`s playing rarely disappoints .... the beauty of the Denon releases is the wonderful restore of this recordings (you`ve been warned ) .... I have a extensive Scriabin discography somewhere, but can`t find it for now .... Quote
HutchFan Posted April 3, 2019 Report Posted April 3, 2019 5 hours ago, Referentzhunter said: Is this the definitive set ? I'm nowhere near expert enough to call it definitive -- but I've enjoyed Zhukov recordings of Scriabin's music very much. I only have one other LP of Zhukov performing Scriabin (below), and I've been thinking about upgrading to Zhukov's complete set of Scriabin sonatas, which Melodiya has reissued on two CDs.  . . . the complete set of sonatas on CD:  FWIW, I also like Scriabin recordings by Sofronitzky, Horowitz, Melnikov, Ashkenazy, Berman . . . It would be difficult to pick just one interpreter.   Quote

HutchFan Posted April 3, 2019 Report Posted April 3, 2019 Now streaming: Berlioz: Symphonie fantastique / Cluytens & the Philharmonia Orchestra I've been using Spotify to sample stuff from this set, and I'm liking it very much -- especially the French music (but not just the French music). So I'm thinking about plopping for the box. It's relatively inexpensive -- for a set with 65 (!) CDs. Anyone have it? Quote

Española [DG] I recently found this LP at a thrift shop, and I really dig it. Lovely music! . . . Unfortunately, the vinyl has seen better days. Even after cleaning it repeatedly with my record vac, there's a steady stream of crackles and pops. Oh well. At least it doesn't skip. . . . I guess I can't really complain about the LP condition when I paid a dollar for it.   I love these thriftshops ! especially because you never know what t find ! For 1 euro that is a good record. Quote

For 1 euro that is a good record. Oh yes, great fun. I enjoy perusing those places. Goodwill. Salvation Army. Junk stores. All of them.  Of course, on some level it doesn't make sense -- from either a time or money perspective. Nearly everything in those places is garbage. But there is an undeniable thrill when you stumble across a hidden gem. . .  The same day I found Narciso Yepes, I also got the MJQ & Laurindo Almeida LP Collaboration, one of the few MJQ Atlantics that I didn't have. NM condition. $1. Those sorts of scores are what make it fun. Quote
Referentzhunter Posted April 3, 2019 Report Posted April 3, 2019 (edited) This record contains especially music written by Chopin. and i am a fan. I heard a lot o.f his music played by cortot, Arrau, Harasiewicz, Rubinstein, francois, Lipatti but from the first moment i putted the the needle on the record and the music started to play i did not knew what was happening.... Totally different from what i thought to knew. What i am trying to say and thought many times about this fenomenon. What is purism ? Does it exists ? Does it survive ? Is a musical thought of a composer pure ? etc. etc. This record contains also a 1955 recording of harasiewicz's Mazurka's Edited April 3, 2019 by Referentzhunter Quote
