mikeweil Posted January 27, 2017 Report Posted January 27, 2017 Yesterday it was the CD, the ensemble's debut recording; today it's the DVD recorded in 2015. Excellently played, sung, and enacted, and great fun to watch. The participants have humorous ideas in abundance. Highly recommended for any lover of French 18th century opera. Quote

Well Tempered Clavier; Inventions & Toccatas; Suites; 6 Partitas & Chromatic Fantasy the only sony things missing (if you got both french and english suites) are: italian concerto, with misc bach items and scarlatti/spe bach cd art of fugue goldberg variations 2x Quote
StarThrower Posted January 27, 2017 Author Report Posted January 27, 2017 I have Art Of The Fugue. Also some non Bach. The Hindemith set, and the 4 disc set of Prokofiev, Scriabin, Krenek, Sibelius, etc.I should've grabbed the Schoenberg before it sold out and went up in price. Quote

The version I've got is wonderfully played by the Janacek Quartet (who should know what they're doing with this music...) but on a quite noisy old LP, would like to add a good CD version to my collection. Any recommendations? I'm not an expert (or that experienced a classical listener), but I have the Skampa Quartet's version and have enjoyed listening to it. https://www.amazon.com/Janacek-String-Quartets-Nos-Leos/dp/B00005NU9S/ref=sr_1_2?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1485711188&sr=1-2&keywords=janacek+skampa Quote

StarThrower Posted January 29, 2017 Author Report Posted January 29, 2017 Please don't mention the orange swindler when I'm enjoying my Wagner. And Wagner's music has nothing to do with the fascist trend in American politics. Quote
