Hi, I have worried about this for a long time. HLdLG in vol II, p.818 refers to two Mengelberg recordings of the Adagietto, the well-known 1926 one at 7 mins....
In all the discography lists of Mengelberg that I have seen, there has only been mention of the one 1926 version. I have never seen another one listed. Perhaps...
It would really be interesting to hear what H-L has to say about the second Adagietto recording. I have got several Mengelberg discographies and none of it...
... Thanks for the research. In the seemingly well-informed notes in the Naxos issue there is wailing and gnashing of the teeth at the fact that the 1926...
I think that we must make the distinction between a recording that was made with the intention to commercialise it (adagietto) and a recording that was made...
... I beg the court for the opportunity to emend my impression. The M4, more precisely, is no "air-check" or such but a professionally made recording by the ...
AVRO was broadcasting and recording Mengelberg concerts from 1935 to 1941. It has been fortunate that they were not just broadcasting them as was the case with...

Steve, The EMI disc stinks ! It's the worst Mengelberg transfer I have ever heard. A travesty of the Mengelberg sound and not only in the adagietto. If you...
George and all interested, I have not read the responses today and probably won't until tomorrow. I have just been listening to the devastating 1941 Tch 6. The...

... George, I just checked. Music&Arts has a two CD set (from sellers at this point) with 4, 5, 6, but doesn't say which 6. Also Archipel has the 4 and the 5...
Yoel, Â First of all, I should make a correction. I should have written "all four of them" instead of "all three of them". If the M&A is the CD-809(2) one,...
