What Classical Music Are You Listening To?

[Peter Friedman]

Haydn - String Quartet Op.76/3 "Emperor" 

Beethoven - Piano Trio Op.70 "Ghost"

[king ubu]

[Peter Friedman]

Dvorak - Violin Concerto

[Balladeer]

Flores Argentinas (Troy/Albany): Desiree Halac (mezzo) & Dalton Baldwin (pn) 

I love those Canciones de Carlos Guastavino - and Halac sings them delicately but also with the right temperament

[Peter Friedman]

Schubert Piano Sonata D.840 "Reliquie"

Schubert Piano Trio No.1 D.898

[A Lark Ascending]

One of my earliest CDs and one that used to leap out of the speakers (well, still does). Three of his famous colourful scores and the earlier and less well known Dance Symphony - you hear his influences there (French music of the early 20thC, Stravinsky etc) but it's interesting hear him before the New Deal populism made him widely famous (not complaining about the latter!).

A favorite on vinyl in the '70s still sounds dandy now.

Haydn -  String Quartet Op.33/6

Mozart -  Piano Concerto No.16

[A Lark Ascending]

Disc 1 of the CD (well, download) version - I think this was originally a 3 LP set back in the olden days. 

And straight on to disc 2.

First time I ever hear any Haydn concertos in HIP - makes a huge difference, truly ear-opening. Actually, to put it bluntly: first time, any Haydn concerto makes real sense to me!

Now playing:
Vladimir Horowitz Live At Carnegie Hall - CD 8, 3/5/1951, Part One
Robert Schumann – Sonata for Piano No.3 in F minor Op.14 "Concert sans orchestre": 3rd movement Quasi variazioni
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart – Sonata for Piano No.13 in B flat major K 333 (315c)
Sergei Prokofiev – Sonata for Piano No.7 in B flat major Op.83
— Vladimir Horowitz (piano) (Sony Classical / RCA Red Seal)

        

As CBS New's show Sunday Morning had a piece on the 125th Anniversary of Carnegie Hall, I thought I play this recital by Vladimir Horowitz this morning.
