Listening in multichannel.

Big Band Mozart this morning. Nothing insightful, according to 'critics', but highly polished and exhilarating. I normally eschew playing classical music at a volume greater than what I would expect to experience at the concert hall, but this is one package for which I don't mind breaking my own rule at all.

Listening to this via Tidal this morning, very nice recording.

It surely deserves to be played on the big system!

Continuing the delightful Haydn series:




I never tire of hearing these.

I finds lots of flaws in this recording but I love the emotion. I truly enjoy this album.

I think being a New Yorker makes it more.

I’ve shared this before, but it’s worth a second post - this is a very enjoyable recording. The music is very engaging, and Shelley’s playing is wonderfully fluid and dynamic.

Op.10 and 13. I like this set very much--not sure why it received some luke-warm reviews. (Others highly praised it, so I guess they balance each other!)
