I bought this disc for $.04, a ridiculous bargain! It arrived today and I listened to Concerto No.4--what a performance! This is a much younger Arrau than in the set with Colin Davis and his playing is far more energetic. Amazing sound, too.

Corelli - Concerti Grossi
Gli Incogniti, Amandine Beyer   Wonderful performance of these masterpieces. I'm so glad we'll attend a concert with these forces coming February.

This live recording from 1973 (spaced over 4 dates) is superior to his studio RCA recording: he's much more engaged and expressive, and the sound, while lacking some bass and varies a bit from one night to the next, is much clearer. One does need a DVD player that plays back DVD-Audio--and a TV monitor to switch from one Book to the other, but it's nice having all 48 on one disc!

Copland: Appalachian Spring (Complete Ballet); Hear Ye! Hear Ye!
Detroit Symphony Orchestra, Leonard Slatkin Naxos CD Very nice recording and performances. I think Naxos leads the field in producing excellent recordings of 20th century American music.
