Classical Interviews – Kelly Sulick
#ClassicsaDay #ClassicalTimeMachine Early LPs Week 1
In the early LP era (as with other eras of recording) composers conducted their own works, legendary performances were preserved, and occasionally history was made. Here are the ones I chose from that time.
Rafaele Carpino sources Mauro Giuliani guitar works
Carpini performs with precision and taste. His phrasing is elegant and often helps the listener follow the often-obscured melody.
Concurrences - music of Iceland refreshingly diverse
If there's a common thread that gives this music an "Icelandic" quality, I didn't hear it. What I did hear were four talented composers expressing themselves in four very different ways.
Morton Feldman - For John Cage
This music reveals something new with every listen. And the more carefully you listen, the greater the rewards.

Manfred Honeck and Pittsburgh Symphony's sterling Bruckner 9
Even if you are not a lover of Bruckner’s music, you will be after hearing this recording
“Buried Alive” unearths Roaring 20s classics
Michael Nagy delivers what seems like a stream of consciousness monologue. Schoeck knew how to write for the voice -- and Nagy knows how to bring Schoeck's music to life.
