Hello all,
I've never used mediafire before, so this is an experiment for me,
hope it works. I bought a lp of the Drolc quartet on the German
subscription label "opera" (anyone know more about this label?)
Unfortunatly, at home I could see the lp was warped... So the only
thing I could play was the Schubert Quartetsatz. I uploaded it here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?9tymmdaxxy1
Scans are included.
Greetings,
Rolf

Are you using the same sources as in previous releases? Has a better
source for the Bruckner 9 been found? Now that would be truly worthy
of Fred's hype!
cheers,
Tony

I agree. I thought MTT's SFS Mahler 5th was quite dull (compared to both his
other Mahler recordings and other Mahler 5ths I've heard). I have a
difficult time listening to the recording. (I couldn't judge the live
concert very well as I only heard it in Flint Center, where the acoustics
are quite lacking - particularly in treble liveness, so "deadness" is always
a problem.)

I agree. I took my girlfriend to the Concertgebouw performance of Mahler 5
and Strauss Don Juan on Monday (in SF). She's a relative newcomer to
classical music, had never heard either piece, and had never heard ANY
Mahler before. Considering her usual musical tastes and some reservations
about all things German, I was pleasantly surprised that she very much liked
both pieces.

...and by that I don't mean to say I like Mahler better than Beethoven, or
that I think that Mahler is a greater composer than Beethoven
-- just that,
now, it seems Mahler's symphonies are the most frequently performed by
symphony orchestras.

I could have sworn that I heard the following from a replay of last
night's debate"
Are we better off than we were 8 years ago?
Romney:No
McCain: Yes.
The dollar is worthless. There is NOTHING in the treasury. We are IN a
recession. Whirlpool closed its factory in Arkansas and moved it to
Mexico. The National Guard is ill trained and ill supplied( New
Congressional Report) yet die every day for profiteers, etc., etc.,
etc.
I could not possibly have heard McCain say that.
In 2005, the top 1 percent increased its wealth more than the bottom
20 percent. Stop selling us these Bullshit numbers of growth, Johnny.
There is something wrong when Romney appears to be the more honest of
two subhumans
Obama raised 32 million in January. At least I heard that correctly
