It is amazing how much lives in the FM broadcasts. Just now the WHRB transmitted in their “Tuesday-Thursday ’s Nights” the Radio Amsterdam’s broadcast of the Royal Concertgebouw with Bernard Natick played the Debussy’s “La Mer” and Shostakovich’s 8Th Symphony. They are both the peaces that I would hardly listen under normal circumstances – they just not “my” music. However, these time the Concertgebouw “did it” to me. They play Shostakovich amazingly beautiful and intelligent without the typical ‘kovich vulgarity, that actually made this Symphony for a first time to have some sense to me.  Also, on the different note,  the wildness and openness of the Concertgebouw’s Concert Hall combined with astonishingly stunning ability of Sansui TU-X1 to throw phenomenal “SPACE” made any other media I can play in my room a real mockery of sound reproduction. I hate to admit it but I will pick a few Shostakovich’s 8th… who would believe!!!
