[Suzuki KdF] New release that got significant praise and I enjoy . I auditioned the whole thing on Youtube, liked approach and sound quality so ordered. But I haven't heard many KdF recordings, or Bach harpsichord recordings in general, so can't meaningfully rate it vs. the many alternatives. Edited April 6 by T.D.

HutchFan Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 (edited) Now on my turntable: Sergei Prokofiev: Alexander Nevsky (Cantata based on Music for the Eisenstein Film), Op. 78 / André Previn, LSO & Chorus, Anna Reynolds (Angel, 1972) EDIT After listening to this Alexander Nevsky and being impressed, I've been doing some digging on Discogs. Turns out that Previn recorded a lot of Prokofiev during his eleven-year run as the principal conductor of the LSO: - The Piano Concertos - with Ashkenazy - The Violin Concertos - with Kyung-Wha Chung - Symphony No. 1 "Classical" - Symphony No. 5 - Symphony No. 6 - Symphony No. 7 - Cinderella (complete ballet) - Romeo & Juliet (complete ballet) - Peter & the Wolf - with Mia Farrow - Alexander Nevsky (cantata) - Lieutenant Kijé (suite) I had no idea that Previn had made so many Prokofiev recordings! (Perhaps because many of them are no longer available?) Along with his Nevsky, I only know Previn's Romeo & Juliet and his piano concertos with Ashkenazy. I'm now streaming Previn's recording of Prokofiev's Fifth Sym. It's startlingly good. . . . I'm going to need to dive into this stuff more deeply. Seems like Previn had a very convincing handle on Sergei Prokofiev! Edited April 8 by HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 Absolutely fantastic recording! It reinforces my opinion that Mozart is best heard on period instruments, because on modern painos all those wonderful colors are lost: What a pity that the label is defunct and the CD has become so hard to find - I had to buy it from a Californian seller.
