Excellent 👌 ....

Recording @ St Barnabas' Church London in March 1985 .... the ease of execution regarding these devilishly difficult compositions is admirable ....

Speaking of a performance (seemingly) at ease .... from a benchmark Sibelius cycle ....

Now streaming Jolivet's Concerto pour Ondes Martenot et Orchestre -- with Yvonne Loriod -- from this set:

André Jolivet - Le enregistrement Erato (Warner Classics, 2004, 4 CDs)

Strange and wonderful music. 

I have two Jolivet MHS LPs that were licensed from Erato and appear on this set.  But as I listen, I'm wondering, "Is that enough?"  For someone like me, that's the danger of streaming: Often, it makes me want to spring for having the whole enchilada.  

I suppose I could join the 21st century.  Be content with streaming, stop buying music & building a collection.  . . . Nah.  That's no fun!
