Shostakovich Symphony No. 11
Haitink/Concertegebouw

FWIW, Bernard Herrmann's score was made available and released back in 2005 by Film Score Monthly and is now only available on the secondary market, as it just recently went out of print:

I second that recommendation, excellent disc.

Agreed.

I talk LP's. I have about 3,000. I have that and many Brubecks on LPs. I really dont listen to them much....Although my system is still intact...CD's are easier. I have many more cd's... I have quite abit Nat Cole, my absolutely favorite album of his is LOVE IS THE THING. I think thats his best.......

Are we talking LP'S here...... Not in my case....love 'em, but the storage is a bit much for me.

Some of you have already mentioned some "historical" recordings that you enjoy. What others on your shelf do you find wonderful to own?

Beethoven Cello Sonatas* Casals/Horszowski* (Pearl)

Good Morning

Bogey

My Casals/Horszowski* Beethoven Cello Sonatas on Pearl (1930's) are absolutely superb Harry. His playing is wonderful.....in fact, I believe it is a good time to spin these. Plus, I have to admit, the hisses and pops just give it a different listening experience that I enjoy from time to time. Actua...

Absolutely love this recording. This is one of the first cds that got me hooked on classical music. I thought it to be out of print however. Where did you "land" this one...so to speak.

I recently heard that these are quite enjoyable George.

Due to xiaopv's thread:

Beethoven Piano Sonatas Nos. 28, 30-32 Kempff (DG/Stereo)

No. 29 is on the disc before this one.

Bogey

And I cannot disagree with Georges take on the MONO set....if I would have started with these, I would have been VERY happy with them as well and then be looking to get the stereo cycle down the road. One thing that may also persuade you to get the MONO cycle is that it is probably more likely to go...

Bogey

I am VERY happy with the Kempff stereo cycle of the piano sonatas....having said this, I have heard nothing but good things about the mono set which may be worth putting on the shelf beside my stereo set down the road. One thing to remember is there are two stereo editions....well, sort of: http://e...

Well, there hasn’t been as much interest in this thread as I hoped, but I’ll soldier on a little while longer.

Enjoy it more than Volume I....at least this week

PS: Haydnseek,
Thornhill has been noted. I will try to find some samples.

Bogey

My Pleasure... I was wondering if you own any of the sonatas on cpo? If so, these will make you quickly forget them...I prefer the viola and cello playing over the violin playing..Great warm superb sound... The only disc of the series Im not fond of is number 6......(mostly organ works one trumpet ...

Great point David!

They will Bill, so much I understand. They prepare boxes of all these composers.

As the beginner of this thread, I feel constrained to note that I have changed my recommendation for Mahler symphony cycles from the Bernstein Sony to the Segerstam/Chandos, and that his Mahler 2 in particular is one of the 8 CD issues I listed as the best I first encountered in 2006. His Resurrect...

My two favorite soundtracks for Hitch are Psycho and Vertigo..... I will take that as a "yes" and throw on my wish list....but I do need to watch the movie again. For the Psycho soundtrack, do you have the McNeely re-recording below? http://ec2.images-amazon.com/images/P/B000001502.01._AA240_SCLZZZ...

Bogey

How disrespecting....doesn't anyone want to mention his Mahler cycle.... As far as "disrespecting", are you referring to Hitch's quote or that Segerstam's Mahler has gone unmentioned? 8) On another Leif note, David Ross recommended his Sibelius Cycle to me last year and it has been nothing short of...

Bogey

Here is a question for you maskedman: Do you believe the Vertigo soundtrack stands alone as enjoyable music without one having to enjoy the film. I for one usually have to enjoy the film in order to enjoy the music. A few exceptions for me are: The American President (Marc Shaiman) Batman (Danny Elf...

Bogey

I could not agree more. Psycho is one of my all-time favorite soundtracks. Bogey, What about Vertigo? I have not given that a fair enough listen as it is not one of my favorite films by Hitch....though the camera work/shooting/cinemetography is absolutely incredible. And even more than the story, m...

I use sampling quite a bit and hand in hand with recommendations from others who seem to have the same "likes" in classical music. I rarely buy without some sort of pre-listening (radio, sampling, listening to it at a used shop, etc.).
