six string Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Ivan Moravec - Chopin 24 Preludes Ballads in F minor (Supraphone) There's something about Moravec's touch that I really like. He really knows how to draw the notes out of a piano. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Lark Ascending Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 (edited) Another listen to 'The Triumph of Time' - actually one of the easier Birtwistle pieces to follow as he clearly marks out the sections and highlights the instruments being given prominence. Had me thinking of Holst's 'Egdon Heath' which I played straight after - clearly a completely different idiom with clear, tonally sculpted melodies, but shares a sense of moving slowly and relatively quietly through a bleak landscape. Followed by: Just the Planets. Listened to all the above on a train journey from London through the East Midlands - not a landscape I usually care for but yesterday the low sunlight caught the still surviving autumn leaves in their glorious range of colours beautifully; newly ploughed fields, the odd little church...combined with the music, all quite magical. Just the Lulu Suite. This morning: Edited November 19, 2016 by A Lark Ascending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.D. Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 I once saw Eighth Blackbird live, and they're a terrific ensemble. Their repertoire can be rather, let's say, variable, but it is adventurous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
