corto maltese Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 25 minutes ago, Chuck Nessa said: Long story shortened - Rudy's wife was ill and he was only doing sessions for Muse and CTI, no new clients. He agreed to "audition" me so I tagged along with Fred Seibert (producer) to the session. At the end of the session Rudy pulled out his appointment book and asked me when I wanted to record. On August 7. 1978 we recorded Roscoe Mitchell's L-R-G. I was wondering... that gorgeous picture of the percussion set-up on the inside of the gatefold of the album surely wasn't taken at Van Gelder's? Then I noticed it was only the piece "L-R-G", not the whole album, that was recorded there. Anyway, it's a great album and it sounds terrific.

Or, at the very least, allow someone to conduct an extended interview (over multiple days), to capture your experiences as oral history. ... I suppose you could even "interview yourself," Glenn Gould-style. It would be a valuable addition to the valuable contributions that you've already made to jazz as a producer and label owner. Seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that Nonesuch licensed & released Horenstein's recordings of Mahler's First and Third. There may have been more. His Mahler Sixth also? Horenstein's M3 may be his most famous recording, but I think his M1 is even better. EDIT: Just checked discogs. Nonesuch also released Horenstein's M6 with the Stockholm PO. I've never heard that one. Edited April 3, 2020 by HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
