Streamed this via Qobuz (24/96) and I enjoyed it a lot.

Mahler - Stephan - Butterworth - Weill - Requiem - The Pity Of War
Ian Bostridge
Antonio Pappano

via Qobuz




Very good recital.
The booklet is equally touching (war photographs of the American Civil War, WW I, WW II).

Haydn - Piano Sonatas, Vol. 3
Jean-Efflam Bavouzet
Qobuz 24/96




If you play different interpreters of the same works, you begin to hear the little nuances each player puts in his efforts.
The emotion he evokes in the listener.
I find Bavouzet extremely good technically, but I am less touched than with the albums Hamelin recorded, which counts even more for Wallisch.
I'll continue to listen to the whole series though (Vol. 1 & 2).

I'm open for more suggestions and will surely listen to the Jenõ Jandó versions.

Default What Classical Music Are You Listening To Tonight?

Holst: The Planets; Strauss: Also Strachila Zarathustra
Boston Symphony Orchestra, William Steinberg conducting
DG (2001), reissue of 1970-71 Recordings

I haven’t had much listening time in the last few weeks, so I’m digging out some old favorites. This is a great recording and performance. Zarathustra especially is such a glorious piece of music.
