niels Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Francois Carrier, Michel Lambert, Rafal Mazur - Unknowable [2015, Not Two]Carrier and Lambert where on my radar for some time now, and seeing that they have a new record out on Not Two (which means great sound quality) with Rafal Mazur seems a good way to get acquainted with them.Chamber 4 - s/t [2015,FMR]I think my favorite album from recent months is the "For Sale" album from Deux Maisons on Clean Feed, so I was highly enthusiastic when I saw this morning that three of the members (Luis Vicente, Theo Ceccaldi, Valentin Ceccaldi) released another record on FMR together with Marcelo dos Reis.

Larry Kart Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 On their way:Garner — Complete “Concert By the Sea” Christoph Bernhard — Geistliche Harmonien 1665, Herman Max (CPO) Bernhard was a Heinrich Schutz disciple with his own voice. I have a 2-disc set of of Bernhard's complete Geistliche Harmonien (sacred concerti), but it has some less than top-flight singers (the works are very demanding in terms of range); this one disc selection comes highly recommended.

niels Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Resonance Ensemble Double Arc on Not TwoAllmost ordered this one also today, but but it just didn't make it in the end (wasn't to sure about the use of electronics on this one).The records that did make it:Benjamin Duboc & Alexandra Grimal - Le Retour D'Ulysse (Promenade) [2015, Improvised Beings] Tetterapadequ - Chlopingle [2015, Creative Sources]Giovanni Di Domenico, Daniele Martini, João Lobo, Gonçalo Almeida RED Trio + John Butcher - Empire [2011, NoBusiness / vinyl] David S Ware - Planetary Unknown: Live at Jazzfestival Saalfelden 2011 [2012, AUM Fidelity] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last Resonance double disc set is pretty damn great, IMO.I think I just may need to hear some soundclips from the album before I pull the trigger. When I want to hear electronics in music, I normally rather just listen to techno/elektro/idm, than have it incorporated in Jazz. I can't really think of one album where electronics really "made" the album for me (although I have to say I was rather enthusiastic about Peter Evans' Ghosts album from a few years back). Besides that, large groups are a little "hit and miss" with me. From the Resonance ensemble I only have Kafka in Flight which I like, but don't regard as essential stuff. All that being said, the Resonance Ensemble sure has a mouth watering group of players, so I would really like to give them a second chance.

You should absolutely grab the RE disc What Country Is This? It's amazing, and better than Kafka. I ordered Double Arc but won't have it for about a month.

Larry Kart Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 A bunch of classical stuff for $1 each at a local library sale:Bartok Cons. 1&2 with Kocsis and Ivan Fischer, coupled with Rhapsody for Piano and Orch. and Music for Strings, Percussion etc.Pfitzner's "Palestrina," cond. Kubelik (have it on LP but thought I'd see if remastering improved things).Two discs of Mackerras' Delius (he was good with Delius, based on a previous CD I have of his).Horowitz's Schubert D. 960 and Schumann KinderszenenDavid Diamond's Sym. No. 1 and other worksMilstein's DG Bach Sonatas and Partitas (like I don't already have enough other recordings of these works)Some of Blomstedt's Nielsen symphonies and his Hindemith disc with "Mathis der Mahler" Mozart's "Thamos" -- HarnoncourtShostakovich's Michelangelo Verses -- Ashkenazy, Fischer-DieskauProkofiev Piano Concertos 1-5 -- Krainev, KitaenkoSo far have listened to Horowitz's Schubert, quite mannered in spots but also enlightening, the beginning of Fischer's MSPC, which seemed superb, and one of the DSH Michelangelo songs, which confirmed my impression that late D F-D, up until it became too late for him, is more to my taste than most D F-D.

Larry Kart Posted September 26, 2015 Report Share Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) More classical stuff from that library sale:Stravinsky, "Rake's Progress" -- R. CraftFranck Piano Quintet, Liszt solo works -- Richter, Borodin Quartet (a famous performance of the Franck, but no one told me about the hypnotic Liszt performances)Tchaikovsky String Quartets -- Borodin Quartet (Teldec)Vivaldi Violin Concerti -- Shlomo Mintz, Israel Chamber O. (darn good surprisingly, not at all soupy on the part of Mintz or the ICO)Shostakovich "Jazz Music" -- ChaillyMozart Conc. 9, 21 -- De Larrocha, C. DavisBartok, "Bluebeard's Castle"-- Dorati, LSO (oh, baby! -- and now I've got three of them: Boulez on Sony and Ferencsik on a Hungaroton LP; used to have Boulez on DG. Memory tells me that Ferencsik [the one with G. Melis as Bluebeard; Ferencsik did three] is the overall best, though Troyanis with Boulez is something else, but Dorati sure is in the running).Here's a slightly out of synch video of a scene from the Ferencsik "Bluebeard's Castle." Don't know if these are actors lip-synching to the recording or the actual singers, but they sure do look right for the parts.
