The Boston FM radio and my Sansui TU-X1 tuner gave another magnificent treat - a whole weekend of Bruno Walter music. I always liked Bruno Walter, although he never was my “buy on spot” conductor. Performances of some conductor (for instance Sc...

the way you want to hear it!Bruno Walter, was a close friend to Mahler and very much a Classic only preference conductor. He does "The Titan" without over-emphasising it's late romantic origin.It is available on Columbia "<-360 SOUND->" STE...

Scott,
Unfortunately Bruno Walter is not my guy, and particularly on Richard Strauss and therefore I would not help you. However, I would suggest you to find a different, more productive venue to research performances after those “just heard” exper...

Jorsan, Bruno dropped his little advertising bundle here then zipped away like a cuckoo lays its egg, but in passing he did ask for feedback. I have to say Robin stayed on the subject, and no one has so far popped up to "defend" the speakers. My...

It is a tradition in Boston to close the Tanglewood season with Beethoven IX symphony and it is almost a tradition to pay it very badly. Today was not an exception. Michael Tilson Thomas led BSO with Tanglewood Festival Chorus with the celebrated wo...

Early New Years morning (5:30 am!), I and my girlfriend were driving to Mt Baker for a day of skiing. Near the US / Canadian border, I found one of the Vancouver classical radio stations and we listened to the festive New Years progra...

Yep, Bruno. What Bob Robbins describes is exactly what DPOLS is all about. I was very surprised to hear it coming from the tranches of audio community. When I saw you posing a link to some kind of presentation at another audio show I did not click it...

Romy,If you do hire Mr. Robbins then the key, I think, will be for you to observe and personally participate in his system tuning ceremony (he will in any case need another pair of hands to help move the Macondo around and especially in a way that wi...

It is not unknown work to me, I never was hugely thrilled about it but I heard it today for the first time that I suddenly turned to like it. Ironically it was the performance today that I liked but rather it was a bliss to me, an inspiration why I d...

A friend sent me a link to an interesting video about Bruckner
on analog. I do not know who the guy is; he is a Bruckner devotee, which is
good. I'm afraid I must disagree with his choices, although I certainly
enthusiastically support his appreci...

I recently assembled my analog setup and the last week played some record - I did not do it for 6 months or so due to all reconstructions…. Playing last well Bruno Walter M4 from 1948 I come across an observation – why our mono cartridges are so scre...

Bruno,Let me clarify some things. First, I am not making any negative criticism of Bob Robbins or his method. Not having heard a system set up his way, I cannot say anything definite about the results. Also, while I visited Romy twice (in Boston Back...

Scherchen's Moving Mozart Requiem, June 11, 2005I have little objectivity when it comes to this magisterial Scherchen account of Mozart's Requiem. My first versions on LP in the 1970's were Bruno Walter's and Sir Thomas Beecham's (the former now on ...

Firstly, no form of criticism was implied, why at all? Bartók just seems to give you some form of 'empty notion' perhaps, as does Brahms with me. I discussed this subject earlier today with my audio friend who would share your take on Bartók but does...
