I had noticed that you put some classical music posts on the "What are you spinning thread" and I am very glad that you found us here. Glad you listen to LP's, as do a number of us here, and we hope you will make it a habit to post your classical listening here. (Nice Six Eye Columbia, by the way.) We feel that the thing that makes this thread special is the fact that most of us make comments about the music we listen to (as you did in your post above) which helps us discover new music, and makes this a friendlier place. Please come back often. Julian

I love to sit around listening to LP's and since retiring I should have more time to do just that.
Tried once before, but didn't get very far, so I'll try again. Listening to 20 lp's in a row is kinda fatiguing I expect to come up for air after each couple of records - This is a well reviewed set of records. I've had it for years but don't think I've played more than 2 or 3 records. Johan Sebastian Bach - Das Orgelwerk Lionel Rogg - Organist - on various organs A twenty (20) LP Box Set, recorded and manufactured in Germany by EMI in 1976 Fantasie, c - -- - Kloster Sorø

Usually I listen to orchestral music, but I want to get into instrumental piano and chamber music more, so last night I played...
Beethoven: Piano Sonatas Nos. 1-32 (Complete), Paul Lewis Disc # 2 which includes Piano Sonatas No. 8 in C minor, Op. 13 'Pathetique' and No. 11 in B flat major, Op. 22  I don't know much about piano music and I selected Paul Lewis because of the glowing reviews he has received and the selection of vol 4 of this cycle as Gramophone Record of the Year in 2008. Lovely music and sound. I need to explore this cycle more in-depth.

Based on Dean's recommendation, I got
Brahms: Symphony No. 1 in C minor, Op. 68, Budapest Festival Orchestra, Iván Fischer  I really enjoyed this interpretation and the sound was excellent. I liked the way Fischer emphasizes certain phrases in the piece. The pizzicato and the tympani at the end of movement #1 were exciting and the way he brought out the strings on top of the horn theme during the 4th movement was amazing (around 3:01). Right after I heard the Fischer I played my Esoteric SACD remaster of Karl Böhm with the Berlin Philharmonic from 1959. I found the Böhm more intense than the Fischer and its sound surprisingly excellent given the 1959 vintage.  In summary, two top choices for this great piece.
