What Classical Music Are You Listening To Tonight?

[bart]

Joseph Haydn - Die Schöpfung
Capella Coloniensis, Bruno Weil




Wonderful performance of a great work.
Listening in 5.0.

[PHC1]

[Antonmb]

Kara Karayev: The Seven Beauties; The Path Of Thunder (Ballet Suites)
Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Dmitri Yablonsky conducting
Naxos (2013), streaming via Qobuz

Tried this out today after reading a review. It’s well recorded and played, the sound is quite good, and the music is pleasant enough, but frankly gets a bit boring after a while. Probably not a recording I’ll purchase.

As does the splendid performance!

Ha Ed, I do love good wine, or a Single Malt.
But we only drink during weekends.
A sound promise we made to ourselves quite a while ago...
