Smallish Stereo Speakers with Decent Sound
soulpope replied to Teasing the Korean's topic in Audio Talk
Some of the Danish producers aren`t too shabby either.....would see a used Jamo 8 Concert (or Jamo C 803 being virtually the same speaker) in good condition as a must buy anyday...... Generally speaking build quality is (also) important with these "book shelf" speakers and most of them requiere additionally stands to unfold their potential.....this altogether (at least from my perspective) "drives" the price above a USD 500 range... Recently I`ve read a interesting review of an stylish UK (again !!!) bookshelf speaker http://www.whathifi.com/review/q-acoustics-concept-20 where the asking price is 500 pounds, but the obligatory requiered stands cost another 200 Pounds (just to make clear, this speaker for sure is not a target for "Teasing the Korean" neither price- nor basssoundwise !!!!) -
Smallish Stereo Speakers with Decent Sound
soulpope replied to Teasing the Korean's topic in Audio Talk
It's funny, I just re-read the original message and noticed the word "bass". (Forehead slap) soulpope is absolutely right. LS3/5A isn't (ahem) noted for its deep, resounding bass. My mistake. Thanks soulpope. no problem...was actually fun to check on some of the clones and probably unveiled additonal inspiration to unpack my old Rogers LS3/5A and give them a run......listen to some music and wait until Scott Dolan comes up with further good speaker ideas with a price tag of USD 500 ..... btw really like your "profile" photo -

Music and The Great War (1914-18)
soulpope replied to A Lark Ascending's topic in Classical Discussion
The composer asserted that he was not conscious of the influence of World War I when composing the 5th symphony, but added that "not one of us is the same as we were before the war". Nevertheless it`s documented that Nielsn wrote about a "evil motif" intervening in course of the first movement...... Probably a good reason to play again the great interpretation by Michael Schonwandt and Dnso released on Dacapo...... -

Mahler Symphony 6 "Tragic" - although finished some 10 years before the outbreak of WW1, this symphony with it`s fate motif and military rhythms colouring parts of the composition is said to stand for a premonition of the forthcoming war. -

glad this info was still of interest/helpfull.....actually it was your remark which made me diggin` these infos which were partially either new to or forgotten by myself...... so most likely it was always Pat Patrick on tenor within the timespan January to End of May 1970 (ommitting one gig at the Frog & Nightgown in Raleigh N.C in March 1970, where Paul Jeffrey played tenor instead of Pat Patrick ......the following gig at the Village Vanguard it was Pat Patrick on tenor back again) ..... -

In 1970, jazz pianist Thelonius Monk tapped Pat to fill in on tenor sax one night at the Village Vanguard. For Pat, who wound up playing with Monk for five months, it was one of the high points of his career. That first night, Terry Adams, one of the founders of the rock band NRBQ, with which Pat also played periodically in the 1980s, was in the audience. "At one point Monk played something new, which completely threw everyone off," Adams recalled. "But Pat got it just like that. Didn't even have to turn the horn." Also the discography from the book titled "Brilliant Corners" states Village Vanguard January 8th -10th, 23rd-24th, 30th - 31st (*) March 5th-8th and 13th - 15th, May 26th-31st, 1970 Pat Patrick (tenor saxophone) Thelonious Monk (piano) Wilbur Ware (bass) and Leroy Williams (drums) btw (*) Ed Blackwell (drums) Toronto Colonial Tavern February 6th - 14th, 1970 Pat Patrick (tenor saxophone) Thelonious Monk (piano) Wilbur Ware (bass) and Beaver Harris (drums) Boston Jazz Wokshop February 24th - 28th, 1970 Pat Patrick (tenor saxophone) Thelonious Monk (piano) Wilbur Ware (bass) and Beaver Harris (drums) http://www.monkbook.com/sessionography/sessionography-1970-1975/ -

Why would you be so sure? Rouse wears a different suite I'd say (which obviously if it's different nights needn't mean much). didn`t want to raise a (unnecessary) hatchet - but you`re right about Rouse`s suite and the skin of the bassplayer, as far as detachable, looks "white" btw doesn`t look like Larry Gales to me.... Monk looked quite different in 1969. More puffed up, excuse the expression. There's plenty footage from that tour on YouTube, in Paris with Hygelund and Wright (and Philly sitting in) and solo (and duo with Joe Turner) in Berlin. The Paris footage was also released on a cd, discussed in another thread here at length. Moreover, Monk wears the same hat in the photo and the video. He never used the same hat on different tours in different years. Indeed, it is the same hat he had when I saw him in 1965. In all of the 1969 footage he wears a different hat (and different - more "modern" - suits as well). thnx for the indepth explanation - the fact you`ve been there is sufficient proof to me. -
Bertrand, as you seem to have an insight - any update on the "Back to the Tracks" Bonus titles ?

The Second Symphony being rather a mournful work in which Roussel incorporates (for sure horrible) experiences envisaged in WW I during his service as ambulance driver and artillery officer He wrote to his wife, “We shall have to begin to live again under a new conception of life; which is not to say that everything that was done before the war will be forgotten, but that everything that will be done after it will have to be different.” -

Taras Bulba was composed in memory referring to the massacre of Russians in WW1 - both Taras Bulba and Sinfonietta here in a landmark recording with Ancerl and the CPO.
