Sneakeater Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Various: Buttons: From Champaign to Chicago Smiley Lewis: Shame, Shame, Shame (Disc 1) (proof, if any be needed, that you can be not as good as Fats Domino while still being pretty fucking great) Telemann: Seliges Erwägen -- Passions-Oratorium (Richter/Zumsande/Mbodjé/Balzer/Feyfar/Harvey/Neven//von der Goltz/Freiburger Barokorchester) (let's face it: Easter music just isn't as much fun as Christmas music) Dvorák: Piano Concerto//Martinu: Piano Concerto No. 4 "Incantation" (Kahánek//Hrûša/Bamberger Symphonieorchester) (I've said it a few times and I'll say it again: this Hrûša guy is REALLY good) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sneakeater Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Bach: St. Matthew Passion (Suzuki/Bach Collegium Japan) Linda May Han Oh: Aventurine Steph Richards: Supersense (I really like the music -- maybe trumpeter Richards's best -- but I don't see how the coordinated smell strip that comes with the album -- one scent for each track -- adds much) (recommended to Mrs. Bonner) Osvaldo Golijov: Last Round//Handel: Concerto Grosso Op. 6 No. 6//Tchaikovsky: Serenade for Strings (A Far Cry) Narváez: Musica del Delphin (Marquez) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sneakeater Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Handel: Brockes-Passion (Watts/Murray/Quattelbaum/Bowen/Mede/Hughes/Spence/Lloyd/Pease//Eggar/Academy of Ancient Music) Amy Allison: No Frills Friend San Cha: Capricho del Diablo (very highly recommended) (to everyone) Pfitzner: Violin Sonata/Fünf Klavierstücke/Sechs Studien für das Pianoforte (Wallin/Pöntinen) Schubert: Winterreise (Kaufmann/Deutsche) Archie Shepp/Jason Moran: Let My People Go (interesting contrast to Shepp's duos with Horace Parlan in the '70s and '80s -- same root styles, but Moran approaches them intellectually/sentimentally, whereas they were in Parlan's blood) (that does not devalue this new one, to be clear) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sneakeater Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Pergolisi: Septem Verba a Christo (Karthäuser/Dumaux/Behr/Wolff//Jacobs/Adememie für Alte Musik Berlin) (Haydn's is better -- and it doesn't even have words) Smiley Lewis: Shame, Shame, Shame (Disc 2) Dukas: Fanfare pour Précéder "La Péri"/La Péri/L'Apprenti Saucier/Symphony/Polyeucte/Sonate/Prélude Elégiaque/La Plainte, au Loin, du Faune . . .
