I played volume 7 & 9 this evening, while cooking.
Haydn is so underrated.
This is heavenly music!

Considered by many to be the definitive "Firebird", Antal Dorati & the London Symphony. Brought this out to 'knock the dust' out of my speakers with the Infernal Dance.

Well......... its the afternoon, but listening to some excellent piano work. Really, not bad for a girl. Not sure why, but some interpretations are simply better to my ears when played by a distaff member of our community.
Piano Concerto No. 2 in F minor, Op. 21
Frederic Chopin
Orchestre de Paris
Paavo Jarvi, conductor
Khatia Buniatishvili, piano

Yes, I'm Still Listening . . . . and tonight with the temperature -4º outside, - In Tennessee. I'm listening to . . .

Richard Strauss . . Also Sprach Zarathustra . . . an LP,. recorded in 1968 and performed by
The Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Zubin Mehta.


An outstanding performance, as were most of Metha's recordings with the LAPO.

Huge dynamics. Great recording.
