Sad news; but thank you for passing it along. Wallberg conducted a remarkable set of B8 performances in Boston awhile back -- and unexpectedly so, since he...
Doug, did you first think, upon reading Ken's post, that Celi would be turning over in his grave at Ken's dinner rather than the recording? That was the way...
mmm, yes, mebbe Celi and i would dig some Jack in the Box! anybody like Szell's performance of the 8th? the scherzo is superbly crisp--heard new stuff! ...
I can just see Celi driving up to Jack in the Box in a European sportscar, wearing white tie and tails on his way to a concert, and ordering a load of messy...

Although I am a Celi fan, I too have learned something from listening to faster tempo recordings of Bruckner. For me the epiphany was listening to the...
Unfortunately I think the late Ormandy LP was never released on CD. I could die for having a copy on CD-R... Besides: Check the timing of various Bruckner...
"Berlin. October 7, 1944. A typical day toward the end of the Third Reich. Soldiers die. Civilians suffer. Jews are murdered. Nothing special. "In the...
A magical performance of a work he performed too seldom. thanks for the reminder of it. I don't know if it's the most extraordinary recording of the century...
This raises a sensitive matter for me. I have made it very clear (I believe) in this forum that I do not collect archival monaural recordings of live...
Hi Warren - I appreciate what you write, but wonder if you may not be confusing categories. Let me do a little untangling without pretending to unravel all...

Could it be that we are back to the old Haas vs. Nowak methodology in contrasting a "performing version" with that which exists in manuscript without any...
Dear Warren: This is one of the reasons why I am not interested in discussing the Roelands-Issue any longer. I personally think regarding the Finale Fragment...
Ben, I'm just a musical layperson, and all I want is the music, all the music, and nothing but the music (that is to say, I want a Finale Completion to listen...
You are not alone with this wish... ;-) And I bet you don´t want to suddenly stop the music - or? I even feel always frustrated when Pianists break off in...
Well, this was a surprise. I went to a concert last Saturday at the Royal College of Music, London, where the students were conducted by Bernard Haitink in a...
Just to get the title right, the motet is "Christus factus est"; or, more completely, "Christus factus est pro nobis", perhaps Bruckner's finest a capella...
What a terrible error! Forgive me, John - I was just bit too excited. Ken John Proffitt wrote: "Just to get the title right, the motet is "Christus factus...
Ken, in your opinion was Bruckner able to say in just a few minutes in his Motet what it took Mahler much longer to say in his 2nd Symphony? --Warren...
Probably not really, Warren. I think they were coming from totally different positions. It may be that Mahler aspired to a Brucknerian faith, but the 2nd...
I agree that they were coming from different positions, as Bruno Walter pointed out. If, as Walter said, Bruckner had already found God, Bruckner didn't need...
Dear Urb, I saw your message and didn't forget to react. In a few days I will answer your questions, I must translate a few passages of the German literature. ...
