[#3170] Mieczyslaw Horszowski    
jules,

Thx!! Horszowski's Bach Well-tempered klavier is right here already. This is my second favourite version other than Gloud's one.

A Happy and Prosperous New Year to all classical fans.

BTW, just wanna ask brothers if your system can afford to overcome the complexities when playing O Freunde, nicht diese Tone! of Beethoven's No.9 Symphony. I find that when all sing in chorus, the speaker can hardly absorb both the high and low frequencies, making it almost out of control.

A limiter/compresser device could help a bit but the effect is so satifactory at all. I think it all attributes to my poor setup, esp. the speaker itself.

What a fresh morning of 2008! although bit chilly.

Listen to Mozart's violin sonatas played by Henryk Szeryng and Ingrid Haebler, although the remaster recording have some background tape hiss and click, the recording was tureful and in fine analog.

The performance was elegant and joyful. Szeryng violin tone was colorful, while his colboration with Haebler was intimate, although I would prefer Grumiaux's naturalness and Haskil's fluent playing, I also love thois version.

What a fresh start from Mozart in 2008.

Read an interesting article on Ming Pao Daily by Yang Chiu, an editor from Taiwan. It is about why S. Richter had to carry a score and sight read in the late stage of his career, and his attitude towards the performance of music. Quite touching, the writer must be a Richter loyalist.

Heirich Neuhaus, his teacher at the Moscow Conservatoire, put it better than anyone: 'One feels clearly that the whole work, even if it is of gigantic proportions, lies before him like an immense landscape, revealed to the eye at a single glance and in all its details from the eagle's flight, from a tremendous height and at an incredible speed.'

In later years, Richter's unvarnished interpretations, delivered on his favourite 'neutral-toned' Yamaha instruments and with a stiffening technique, could be hard to bear. Yet those who had heard him at his transcendent best, as I once did in four Schubert sonatas in a Staffordshire school hall (how he adored those small, out-of-the-way venues), could always sense where he was coming from and what he wa driving at.

ck2005,

TO my knowledge, Kurt Sanderling's recording on Berlin classics were really legendary, his Sibelius was especially famous. I also eager to hear his recording, where did you get it and how much?

Start listening to Prokofiev's Symphony No. 4&5 in complete symphony box by Gergiev last night. Symphony No.4 was written based on material initially written for ballet, the sound world of Prokofiev was innovative, the melody sound strange initially but was wonderful when you listen to it once again.

Symphony No.5 was filled with the surrow and trauma after the second world war, the long melody line was screaming, telling us the grievance of losing a loved ones.

Gergiev palying was red hot in symphoy No 4, and reflective in symphony No.5, recording by Philips was in fine digital recording and was very dynamic, may be too dynamic for last night listening.

Dr. CKM,
Thanks for your sharing. I bought it simply because of your or others' previous recommendation. It's not worthwhile to buy the CD set as it costs more than HK$500 to get it from ebay. If it's available in the territory, I would then go to local CD shop.

lym,

A CD which cost more than 60 is very expansive nowadays.

記得以前初聽 CD 時一隻要成我八九十蚊. 個時搵錢又少, 真係買碟覺得好貴. 現在好多 complilation, reissue...五花八門, 係 HMV 囉住個籃黎買, 好爽. 唯一可惜係香港 market 細選擇面不太擴.

"It is still a bargain as it cost you a little maore than $ 30 per disc only. "

咁計都抵既! Rarity (if it's the case) should also take into account.
