Referentzhunter Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) On 27-2-2019 at 3:30 AM, HutchFan said: Johannes Brahms - Ein Deutsches Requiem - Herbert von Karajan, Berlin PO, Weiner Singverein, Gundula Janowitz, Eberhard Wächter (DGG) Here's my take on Karajan: He could be very hit-or-miss, depending on the repertoire. Karajan's Sibelius and his Bruckner are legendary, but I've never really grooved to them. And HvK's Mahler gives me the willies! To my ears, they're a complete mismatch of composer and conductor. And yet . . . Karajan's Brahms is AMAZING. It almost always wins me over. . . . His Brahms is like his Beethoven. It just sounds right. Or at least it does to me. Also a bad combination are Mozart and Karajan. yak Edited March 1, 2019 by Referentzhunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Among the pre-HIP, "old school" conductors, my favorite for Mozart is Josef Krips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Back to Ralph Vaughan Williams. Now listening to his Fourth Symphony -- as performed by Boult & the New Philharmonia Orchestra: Picked up this LP in a local shop today for two bucks. Now, I need to find Boult's recording of RVW's Sea Symphony (No. 1), and I'll have his complete EMI/Angel cycle on vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander Hawkins Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 The Bach - disc 1. As with Lipatti, one sole partita (or OK, in Lipatti's case, a couple of versions, but of the same one...) is both everything anyone could ever want, and a crying shame...

Referentzhunter Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) One euro find now playing. Haydn stringquartet is ok but nothing more because of the reason that they are young,spontaneous at the moment of recording than that they know what they are doing. Brahms doesn't work at all. Nothing appears in this recording making it worth having in my opinion. Edited March 2, 2019 by Referentzhunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
