Sviatoslav Richter and Benjamin Britten at Aldeburgh (1965-67)
Classical | 1 CD | EAC, no log | 322 MB | APE+CUE | TT: 77:42 | RapidShare

Sviatoslav Richter, Benjamin Britten (piano)
| “ | Between 1965 and 1967 Benjamin Britten and Sviatoslav Richter teamed up at the Aldeburgh Festival for piano duo programs that were taped by the BBC for future broadcast. Music and Arts brought out this material on several CD issues, which stemmed from excellent tape sources. The selections on Decca’s “official” release sound marginally fuller with less tape hiss. Do the performances live up to their legend? In most ways, yes. |

| “ | Mikhail Pletnev is a brilliant musician, an amazing pianist and an idiosyncratic conductor, and he has made a glorious mess of the Beethoven symphonies. The seesawing of tempos in this compelling, driving and sometimes shocking set induce now motion sickness, now awe . . . it demands to be heard. Anthony Tommasini, The New York Times / 30.

| “ | Mariss Jansons’ EMI Shostakovich symphony cycle took nearly two decades to complete, yet it was mere weeks after the release of the final installment (Symphonies 3 & 14) that this new boxed set appeared, providing an opportunity for collectors to get all 15 symphonies at a bargain price. But don’t let the packaging’s diminutive dimensions fool you: there’s nothing small-scaled about the music making. | ” |

Biber: Sonaten über die Mysterien des Rosenkranzes
Classical | Easy CD-DA | APE, CUE, No Log | 2 CD, Covers HQ | 624 Mb
Date : April 10, 2001 | Arcana
| “ | Biber’s Mystery Sonatas offer a feast of violinistic challenges, from the different tunings required in each of the 16 works, to exposed, virtuosic writing that loses its spiritual import when played for mere effect. Gunnar Letzbor’s lively, imaginative playing admirably fuses style and drama. He also utilizes two different period violins, each with its own distinctive timbre and colorations. Similarly, the continuo chores are divided between lute, organ, and harpsichord, providing ample textural and expressive variety. The warm recorded sound transports you from your listening room to an intimate stage, where you can comfortably nestle among these marvelous instrumentalists. | ” |
