[#1766] What r u listening to? ( classical music)    
Dear classical friends,

Thanks for CKM's hospitality and his Tannoy looks very nice.

It's great pleasure to meet Limage, Doctorjohn, KH33,邊個邊個, CKM, Trazom and George.

After dinner, I continue with the 3rd movement of Chopin no.2 and his Grande Poloaise Brillante.

I revisit the first movement of this Siblius, the violin sounds silky. In the mid-night, it sounds especially good with all the lights off.

Morning,

Thank George for giveing me the Andante issue of Beethoven's piano concerto No 5 played by Gulda and Szell. Their playing was very exciting indeed, their pace was fleet from the very beginning, they stress on the classical side of Beethoven. Gulda's touch was solid and firm, while Vienna philharmonic played with discipline under the baton of Szell. This is a playing under Toscanini's style, all in all, their playing depicted a young and Fiery `Emperor'.

If I have to chose one emperor concerto that I really love, I will not hestitate to pick out Arrau digital remake with Colin Davis. Arrau's playing was majestic and sensitive, he also enjoyed expert accompany by Colin Davis and wonderful clear recording by Philips. His version still compared favoritably with the fresh playing of Aimard/ Harnoncourt, thoughtful playing of Kovacevich/ Davis, and now the urgent, fiery and disciplinary palying of Gulda/Szell.

limage remarked that all of you classical fellows are quite 斯文, but left me in a separate "unpredictable" category due to my "darkside" (in hifi only, due to the lagre # of 混吉佬) :-)
______________________________

I guess because many of the friends here were to meet with each other for the first time that doctorjohn, whlee, kh33 and myself (who are old friends already) did appear slightly at odds with the other end of the spectrum, a thoroughbred gentleman chankaiming. When we have more gatherings in the future, we should be able to mix fairly well since we share deeply a common interest in music.

None of us in fact behaved like 混吉佬 , and much less so lym, who did not even make his appearance!

CKM’s system was a little woolly upon first impression and yet that did not seem to adulterate the Tannoys of their intrinsic musicality. The second movement of Brahm’s Violin Concerto helped to clarify this beyond doubt. A little more dynamic contrast, however, might be desirable to bring more life and vitality to the overall performance.

I have been particularly impressed with the elaborate way by which CKM stores his CDs, a method that should merit anyone’s serious consideration.

For Beethoven's piano concerto No 5, I have listend to a few passages played by Horowitz in car radio, very impressive indeed. I would like to look for a CD or LP. Without a serious search, I have not encountered one yet.

And I also like the 1st and 2nd movements of this one.

Erictang:

Morning Gentlemen!

As far as I know, Horowitz played Beethoven's with Fritz Reiner (whom I admire most among a folk of Hungarian conductors) and RCA Victor Symphony Orchestra in 1952, a mono recording which has better sonic quality than its previous account in EMI (mono as well!) (Does anyone know Horowitz play this piece in stereo?)

This version is fervently played with Horowitz's unique nuance, passion and color, it's no longer a legitimate german-school interpretation like Arrau or Kempff, a much much idiosyncratic account with fire and lots of rubato, yet Reiner accompanied him very well indeed. Just like his schubert's D960 sonata, he was reluctant to approve the issue by virtue of its 20% schubert but 80% Horowitz, re-creation of work already!

Naxos reissue has been my top choice among other reincarnation (Urania, RCA) because its remaster engineer didn't remaster the work by aggressive approach nor overdue noise-reduction techonology, harmonic and original tone in music has been preserved intact, a best-buy indeed!

If you want to listen the CD before purchasing it (to reconfirm whether exactly the one you listened before in car radio), please give me a call via pm. send you a CDR first!

A heavy-footed approach by Klemperer (with Philharmonia Orchestra) with refined beauty rendered by arrau in 1958, an indispensable account for Beethoven music lover, an olympic-race competition between Klemperer and Arrau.
Sonic quality is not first rate but musically satisfying!!

My personally favourite emperor, apart from Arrau's account.

Michelangeli and Giullini gave us a lyrically romantic and tender interpretation with edge and superb fingerwork. Second movement is simply Unforgettable!

Since we're on the Emperor, I totally agree that the Arrau/Davis is a jewel, freer and more spontaneous than the earlier version. I also agree the Horowitz/Reiner ranks as one of the greatest versions. Naxos pairing it with the Rach 3 makes it a MUST buy.

I also agree with george1977's stand on restoration and noise reduction. I like Naxos and Pearl. The worst is the EMI CEDAR process, which kills the sparkle in the music.

A "must" account if you are the advocates of either Wand or Gilels, glowing performance with breathtaking virtuosity!

A unprecedented collaboration between Stokowski and Gould gives us an unorthadox playing, driving you crazy if you like legitimate (what is legitimacy of playign beethoven?) and decent reading, both guys are indulging themselves! A "must" for either genius or prank (even sado-masochist)!

Unknown! I hope to collect too if Richter recorded this work, I must ask our resident historian of Richter - Trollope!

I like his playing in Melodiya's account of Beethoven Choral Fantasy (sung in Russian, trill in the text is miraculously played!), my favourite!

I always love these romantic music to be played in a slow and sentimental manner, so that the last ounce of juice can be squeeze out, hope you appreciate that as well.

聽完了!!!感覺非常好

Prokofiev是現場的錄音, 但一點也不差 聽到好爆炸性!
錄音很有現場感覺, 偶然聽到一兩聲咳嗽聲
李雲迪的演繹其實有少少中國色彩
他不會以不斷的機械性鐵鎚般敲在琴鍵上, cadenza的表現很乾淨
不過正好配合Russian的共產奮進感覺!
不難想像到熱鬧曲終後, 觀眾拍爛手掌時的情況!

敢說李雲迪的Ravel是我其中一個最愛的演繹
很細膩, 很自然
特別是第二樂章, 很有秋天孤獨地散步的感覺
整首聽上來令人興奮得抖唔過氣

作為orchestration既大師, Ravel呢首野隊如果orc無番咁上下
個人認為都係爭咁d色彩....!
今次搵到Berlin同埋Seiji Osawa玩
真係好精彩!

可惜是比較短了....
如果加多一兩首encore會更令我覺得呢隻碟物超所值
