[quote user="JANDL100"]I'm not that 'into' Debussy or Ravel, so I thought some Beethoven sonatas might give me a better idea of his playing to start off with. [/quote]

As far as I know the Matacic discography never was made available. A few weeks ago a fellow at other (more amorphous) forum – Mr. Makopolus - published his list that I find worth to be preserved and publicized. So he is it: the Matacic discogra...

a very good take on ones 'motivation' of musical likes and dislikes. In fairness I have listened to some rendition of Brahms’s 2nd piano concerto and it has something more for me, yet it might just simply be more 'accessible'? Maybe it has some sort ...

… the barbarism of broadcasts industry takes over. I found the Levine’s Saturday play was very good very good, even those I am not as exuberant as Clark is about it. I like what Levine BSO did but I would like to have it more fundamental and more Moz...

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...

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 ...

Well, I do it manually and I use folders. While the usual arrangement is by period then composer you can also place shortcuts within a folder for cross-referencing, eg a folder 'Mozart Piono Concerto, Clara Haskil' can contain a shortcut to a 'Pianis...
