French music: Darius Milhaud: Le Boeuf Sur Le Toit ; La Création Du Monde / Orchestre du Theatre Des Champs-Elysees, conducted by the composer (Nonesuch, rec. 1958) I've added this LP to my collection after first hearing the music on YT just a few weeks ago. It's music that's bursting with life! Mike, is there a harpsichord thread on the forum where you (and others) have discussed your favorite recordings? If not, I'd love to hear about your desert-island harpsichord discs. It's an area of music that I know very little about. Got that lp back in the day and replaced it on cd a couple of years ago - Quote

Yeah, I need to hear the Juilliard's version. Have you heard Hermann Scherchen's arrangement for orchestra? I love it. I bought this Canadian "Hermann Scherchen Edition" 2-disc set when I was visiting Canada twenty years (or so) ago. Positive associations. 2 hours ago, Chuck Nessa said: Got that lp back in the day and replaced it on cd a couple of years ago - Fantastic music & performances. Quote
HutchFan Posted January 10, 2024 Report Posted January 10, 2024 Back to Mahler's Ninth: Mahler: Sym. No. 9 / Bernstein, NYPO (Sony) This version is similar in conception but less extreme than Lenny's later M9 with the Concertgebouw. I love them both. I'd put those two Bernstein recordings right at the top of my Mahler Nine heap -- along with Jascha Horenstein (1952) and Bruno Walter (1961). Such a magnificent work! Quote
