Interesting...I haven’t listened to too much Trifonov I must admit.

The Kleiber Beethoven is mind-alteringly brilliant IMHO (as are his live recordings of these two, as well as 4 and 6)...love this...

You`re obviously on a adventurous Janacek journey  ....

[Alexander Hawkins]

I am indeed. Various pieces I've known and loved for a long while, but was only passingly familiar with most of the operas; so have been listening to these virtually non-stop for weeks (it seems!) now. I don't think it had ever quite sunk in just how *individual* Janacek was/is. And the sound of the Czech orchestras, and language, is just another reason...incredible...

Agree about the sound of Czech Ocherstras (of the past) .... obviously I`m biased regarding the language`s beauty  ....

Beautiful music, excellently played, on two wonderful instruments, in perfect recorded sound - nothing left to ask for.
