Glass, Undistorted Performances with Di Lallo
This is a fine collection. I'm looking forward to doing some A/B comparisons with other recordings of the etudes. I suspect there may be a few surprises.
Bruckner: From the Archives, Vol. 6
No matter how many Bruckner recordings you own, this series should be in your collection. There are some truly insightful performances here. And a few that made me hear these very familiar works in new ways.
Howells and Wood - String Quartets by Puepil and Teacher
The "Englishness" of these pieces comes through without sounding cloying or artificial. Wood and Howells were masters of their craft. And the inherent beauty of these works is what the quartet delivers.
African Art Song - Uncommon Music Awaiting Discovery
Rebeca Omordia and her colleagues have produced an album of music worth exploring. And music that encourages further exploration. Here's hoping there's a volume 2 in the works.
Bruckner From the Archives, Vol. 5 - Another Noteworthy Release
The penultimate volume in this series continues to surprise and illuminate. All recordings come from the archives of the Bruckner Society of America. Audio
African Pianism Volume 2: Still much to explore
There's a lot to explore. Africa is a large continent with many cultures and many musical traditions.
Mirage: Solid Piano Works by Stephen Dodgson
A welcome addition to this ongoing series.
Bruckner From the Archives, Vol. 3 - More, please
Another fine addition to this series. Looking forward to volume 4.
Stephen Dodgson: Canticle of the Sun
Well-crafted music sung by a top-notch ensemble. If you're a fan of choral music, this belongs in your collection.
