Thank you my friends!
Since I subscribed to Tidal and Qobuz, I promised myself to buy no more than one album per month. It's (often) difficult, but I succeeded so far (sometimes I cheat a little, by purchasing 'albums' containing more than 1 CD ). But I have hundreds of favourites in my Qobuz account now, and dozens in my Tidal account. What a wealth of great music there is to be found: new releases as well as older ones. Great time to be a music lover nowadays, also with the excellent gear available.

Haydn - Piano Sonatas, Vol. 7
Jean-Efflam Bavouzet, piano via Qobuz Our most underrated composer? These are wonderful pieces and Bavouzet is a dedicated Haydn player. Recorded (and well done so) on a Yamaha piano.

What Classical Music Are You Listening To Tonight?
Focus Cello
A variety of cello concertos from 4 cellists and Kremerata Baltica conducted by Heinrich Schiff. From ClassicsToday.com: “four young cellists–outstanding students of Germany’s famed Kronberg Academy–perform “Italian or Italian-inspired cello music from three centuries” (actually four–18th-21st), featuring both solo and duo cellos with orchestra.” The performances and sound are quite good, most of the pieces are interesting, and it mostly hangs together. There are a couple of slow movements that seem to lack energy and drag a bit, but overall this is a very nice disk. Streaming via Qobuz

I think he gets the credit he richly deserves for string quartets and symphonies, but his piano sonatas never seem to have reached the acclaim of those of Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert.
I enjoy Jando's set on Naxos. |

I'll play some more of his keyboard works. I already had this played on a grand piano, but I immediately prefer this version. Haydn - Harpsichord Concertos in F and G - Divertimento in F La Petite Bande, Sigiswald Kuijken Ewald Demeyere, harpsichord Sound quality is also excellent! (Listening in 5.0)

Sergey Rachmaninov - Symphony no. 2 un E minor, Op. 27 - Vocalise no. 14, Op. 34
Budapest Festival Orchestra, Iván Fischer Listening in surround. First time I hear this disc, but I do like it. The more romantic Rach for sure!
