Listenin' to Classical Music and Conversation

I have around 3 dozens Zig-Zag CD's. It think Zig-Zag may have been taken over by another French label ...

 

Does your M10 have the habit of pulling in the wrong CD art like Windows Media Player?

 

Apparently the piccolo cello is played on the shoulder like a violin. Bylsma plays the Partita BWV 1006 & the Sonatas BWV 1003 & 1013, all solo pieces. Recorded 6/23-25/88, Hervormde-Kerk, Bennebroek, Haarlem, Netherlands. Producer: Wolf Erichson. Engineering: Tritonus, Stuttgart. Recording & editing: Stephan Schellmann.

 

Zig-Zag Territoires is part of Outhere Music.

 

Yes, especially with Classical titles. I use a tag editor to correct it after ripping the disc and I never have to worry about it again.

 

BBC Music Magazine CD from 1997.

 

Thanks. I have noticed the Outhere Music label on the CD cover though the Zig-Zag name remains ...

 

Marc-Antoine Charpentier-- Office De Ténèbres: Leçons, Répons, Miserere

 

CD.

 

Not exactly Rodrigo's Aranjuez Concerto!

 

Smetana: Má vlast Boston S.O. cond Kubelik 1971/198? DG Galleria 429 183-2
A favourite of the Galleria's that I bought a lot of in the late 80's and early 90's, this intepritation of Kubeliks from 1971 is one I keep coming back to.

 

Sibelius: Symphony 6/7. Rozhdestvensky, USSR Radio Sym. Melodiya blue label

Part of a set from the early 70s.

 

Dark, angsty but reasonably melodic music. Well played and recorded.

 

This recording is considered by many the best version of this work ...

 

Now playing the following CD, a recent arrival and the second HIP version of Haydn Trumpet Concerto in my collection for a first listen ...



My other version is by Pinnock and the English Concert

 

New arrival, "Hildegard von Bingen: Göttliches Licht - Antiphone & Psalmen" performed by Ensemble Für Frühe Musik, Augsburg on Christophorus.

Divine Light - Antiphons & Psalms

 

I'm still grateful Outhere dug up their last copy of the OOP Festetics Haydn set for me, for the original price, when private sellers' asking prices on Amazon were already going through the roof.

 

I have this Pinnock Haydn set:

 

Mind-blowing virtuosity and musicianship. Great sound, too.

 

I have most of the CD's in this box as singles but am missing 2 or 3 CD's ...

 

First listen to new arrival, "Hilary - 6 Partitas By Anton Garcia Abril" performed by Hilary Hahn on Decca.

Good music and performance but poor manufacturing quality - too many low-frequency repetitive tics for me to give it a thumbs up.
