Pearl (Stereo) LP, SHE553Here is a "bagatelle" from Dvorak; rather, a sack full. The work is done up in 6 short-ish "movements" that are +/- rounds based on the Ukranian "dumka", a sort of semi-hysterical peasant dance that typically features the al...

Dvorak's ...

London LL-1106; mono LP; 1954I feel so expansive listening to this, and I think a lot of it is because Fournier's playing is so perfect, in a very "modern", 20th century way. He does not put finger or bow awry, and the double-string work has to be h...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Last night I was listening Zubin Mehta’s recording of Bruckner’s Symphony No.9. It was his first recoding from 1966 with Vienna. I am not a big fun of this performance all together but it has spectacular first movement...

Spinning tonight the record of Dvorak’s Moravian Duets, Monteverdi and Carissimi with Elisabeth Schwarzkopf and Irmgard Seefried, Gerald Moore plays piano. It is EMI 1956 recording, I guess mono. A wonderful singing, particularly Dvorak. Insanely bea...

I got one SHM-CD disk a few months back, right after I post the initial article, and I hate it. The SHM-CD technology might be worthy but unfortunately from that specific SHM-CD disk that I have purchased (Kubelik’s Dvorak) was absolutely impos...

Yes, Jerry, thanks,I would like to pick some Anton Nanut CDs, not everything from you list but juts some of them. What I would be interesting if the Japanese folks ever pressed Nanut CD/LPs. In SOME cases the Japanese CD mastering is much more intere...

It's been too long since I last heard this. Today, with different amps, I heard it a little differently, with Kubelik "working it" a little harder, using his first chairs to put lovely, "subtle" shadings on Fournier's decisive phrases, with phenomen...

When I moved my system and was just learning the new room and making changes, I was also listening to more Bach than usual. I mostly wanted to play Partitas, Inventions, Preludes, and Goldberg Variations. I was turned off by any cell...

Well, that is a small room, all right. Regardless, a "mid-bass deficiency" alone could literally evicerate big works. I have written up the Kubelik/BPO/Dvorak 9, because I think so highly of that performance. It should absoutely be loaded to the g...

Too hot to expect the best sound today, and besides I have gotten my morbid curiousity worked up about the recording/playback curves, so I fished out a few LPs mostly to hear/see how they sound with respect to the "shape" of their sound, aspects of w...
