Yep, the snow in Boston is kind of annoying this season. When
I rill out my snow blower the last time it looked and me and said: “Come on,

Romy, there is a project to reissue all of Svetlanov's recordings. Eventually, I hope, this project will make available the recording of the cello concerto by Natalia Gutman, which IMO is better than any of the recordings by Rostropovich.I do not kno...

This past weekend I was able to have an extended listen to the revised Melchiades amplifers. My previous listening session left something to be desired with midbass punch and dynamics. Had I not have heard mini me it may not have been noticeable. ...

Today on the way to work I heard on my truck FM Haydn's Cello Concerto #1, Yo Yo Ma with the English Chamber Orchestra, directed by Jose' Luis Garcia. The orchestra played well enough, I suppose, and it was the truck FM, after all, but I couldn't he...

I haven't played Du Pre in a while, so I too will be absorbing her genius tomorrow, followed by a donation to the National MS Society. Her performances of Haydn, Boccerini, Schumann, and (of course) Elgar's Cello Concerti inspired me to as...

Cello HI I have only heard the Cole for a short time, so it wouldn't be fair to compare, also I really can't say to what extent the LCR circuit contributes to the sound of the 1500, the Allnic is very dynamic, has high resolution and makes inst...

Hi Paul,the Casals recording more than any other one that I have heard has a sense of musical direction. Expressions lead to the next, you never have to fill any thing in. If I were to compare what he does, it would be to the best orators at the Roya...

Last week I listened to some small back loaded speakers using Fostex drivers where the cabinets had deliberately been made to replicate some of the qualities of a double bass or cello. Apparently very thin cabinet walls etc.While I have some reservat...

As I told, I’m generally not a fan of the Shostakovich’s orchestral music. There is in Shostakovich’s “large music” a constant sense of vulgarity, peasant intellectualism, humiliation and a sense of blown-up meaningless artificial musicality that ver...

Yes, of course, there is much submission to the powers that were in many DSCH orchestral works - his life, and the lives of his family were literally at stake, after all. Stalin was not a nice or forgiving man. But I don't hear ...
