    NP: L’OISEAU DE FEU / LE SACRE DU PRINTEMPS / PERSÉPHONE (Igor Stravinsky, fremført av Michael Tilson Thomas/San Francisco Symphony)

    Superb performances and - obviously - music on this 3CD set, but the recording is too "low" so you have to turn the volume all the way up...and then the brass outbursts really shatter the speakers when they arrive. Much like the old RSNO rerecordings.
    I am extremely serious.

    Thanks for the pointer smile



    NP : The Rite Of Spring - Igor Stravinsky



    The Kirov Orchestra conducted by Valery Gergiev, I think you'd like this one a lot more Thor, Gergiev's Stravinsky recordings are amongst the very best I've ever heard.

    NP : Scythian Suite - Sergei Prokofiev



    Stunning work of ferocious barbarity that plays so much like a film score.

    I used to have this on in the background years ago while reading Robert E, Howard's Conan books cool

    NP: The Nutcracker Suite with Kunzel conducting the Cincinnati Pops. This is not a complete recording but it does have 73 minutes. I have a lot of recordings of this piece and might just listen to them all and come up with a favorite.

    NP : And God Created Great Whales - Alan Hovhaness



    A stunning work that's so descriptive, could imagine this with footage of the giant mammals with a David Attenborough voice over.

    Hovhaness music is amazing.

    NP : Peer Gynt Suite - Edvard Grieg


    Quite possibly my earliest memory of loving orchestral music is this timeless classic by Grieg which is just as lovely today as it was way back when. This version is conducted by Herbert Von Karajan.

    NP : INCANTATIONS - Mike Oldfield



    I've always loved this, great instrumentation all played by Oldfield except for the orchestra and orchestrations by the brilliant David Bedford

    D, I sent this to you a long time ago.....did you ever play it?

  18. Just Played: Fire/Water/Paper (Vietnam Oratorio - Elliot Goldenthal

    Amazing non-film work by the man. Great orchestrations, very emotional, mostly tonal, to my surprise. Where is Grendel for God's sake?

    I listened to Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 3 this morning (with Brendel piano and Simon Rattle conductor). The performance of the orchestra is great in this recording, Brendel is ok but can't compete with Ashkenazy (but then, who can?). I think the No. 3 is my fav of Beethoven's piano concertos (no, not No. 5 wink )

    NP : If This Bass Could Talk - Stanley Clarke



    I love this album, pure class cool The opening track with Clarke on Bass and actor Gregory Hines ( rip sad ) tap dancing is a touch of genius. Also Clarke's version of the Mingus classic Goodbye Pork Pie Hat is sublime, a very Weather Report style arrangement which I think Mingus would have liked.

    This is a suite of the orchestral music from his final opera (his 15th) written in protest against the Russo-Japanese war of 1905 but also the poor living conditions under Nicholas II.

    This album fills me with loathing and I can't listen to it. When I was at primary school (yes, that far back!!) we did one of those interpretive (?spelling) dance pieces in a schools competition using a track from this album and we had to listen to it time and time again.

    As a consequence, I "hate" this album!
