A Lark Ascending Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) Kossuth...Bartok's 1812 Overture (including national anthems). Lots of Wagner in there but there was a section in the middle that sounded like one of those horseback chases in Hollywood westerns. Another case of central/eastern Europeans crossing to the States in inter-war period, perhaps? No. 25 of latter.

A Lark Ascending Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) 5 + 6 off the first; 131 off latter. Have just started reading: A book by an English violinist in the Takács Quartet. Really interesting mixture of thoughts on playing the quartets, the human relationships of the players and the historical background to their original composition and performance. Some nice asides about the audience too! Not a great deal of help in following the individual quartets, but each chapter is based round one of them so another way in. Good to read about this music from the perspective of someone living with it on a daily basis. No 6 of the Ludwig.

A Lark Ascending Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 (edited) Albinoni made very nice driving music to and from Nottingham (one disc each way) even though it was dark, miserable and wet, singularly devoid of sunshine and olive groves. Concerto off first. Sounds like lovely comfort music today (regularly crops up as background music in TV programmes) but I wonder how it sounded in the late 18thC when the clarinet (or basset clarinet here) was a new instrument? Greatest hits single disc from the second. I love the strings on "Soave Sia Il Vento" - almost Steve Reich!
