Gill Sans SUBS ● 28th Nov 2024		Classical Item Budapest String Quartet - The Historic Early EMI Recordings (1932-36)	Working on it..
Gill Sans SUBS ● 26th Nov 2024		Classical Item Walter Gieseking, Saxon State Orchestra, Karl Bohm - Beethoven: Piano Concertos Nos.4 & 5	Any better now?
Gill Sans SUBS ● 24th Nov 2024		Classical Item First Piano Quartet - Side 1 SECTIONBREAK Four Waltzes, Op. 39	"Originated by Edwin Fadiman" - Nowadays we would say "Executive Producer Edwin Fadiman", which was his title as a television producer.
Gill Sans SUBS ● 24th Nov 2024		Classical Item King's College Chapel Choir - A Festival Of Lessons And Carols, As Sung In King's College Chapel Upon Christmas Eve, 1958	The notes say that this album was the follow up to the earlier Ago release of the Festival of Lessons and Carols at King's College Chapel on RG 39, which was directed by Boris Ord and released in 1954. This 1959 issue was also issued in stereo (ZRG 5190), having been recorded on the 22nd and 23rd of December 1958. The Capel choir is made up of men and boys from the King's College choir. This video of the Invitatory appears to be correct for this record, though the credited label is Beulah, who may have acquired the rights. [YouTube Video]
Gill Sans SUBS ● 18th Nov 2024		Classical Item Division-Musick - Musicke And Mirth: The Art Of Diminution In England In The 17th Century	From the notes: "”Division-Musick“ is a term used by Christopher Simpson during the 17th century to describe a typically English improvisatory style of diminution. Musicians generally used short bass melodies called grounds as the basis for intricate and virtuoso diminutions, beginning with simple and slow melodies over a bass melody, and ending with very fast and virtuosic diminutions after a varying number of repetitions of the melody. "Both singers and instrumentalists practiced this art of diminution, but the preferred instrument for divisions was the so-called ”division viol“. "This CD aims to give some audible insight into English virtuosity in the Baroque era." [YouTube Video]

Gill Sans SUBS ● 16th Nov 2024		Classical Item Various Artists - Classics For All Seasons: Autumn	Scintillation, from Danses sacrée et profane: [YouTube Video]
Gill Sans SUBS ● 13th Nov 2024		Classical Item Robert Elmore - Boardwalk Pipes	The Atlantic City Ballroom Organ was, and is, the largest organ in the world, and the loudest instrument ever made, as befits a ballroom large enough to have had a helicopter flown inside. The selection on this EP was taken from the album Boardwalk Pipes, issued on Mercury Living Presence on vinyl and tape. Here is Robert Elmore playing the Trumpet Voluntary, with much use of the 81 percussion stops: [YouTube Video] Organist Anna Lapwood describes and plays on the organ in her Radio 3 series A View From The Organ Loft
Gill Sans SUBS ● 6th Nov 2024		Classical Item Various Artists - Italian Classics	[YouTube Video]
Gill Sans SUBS ● 2nd Nov 2024		Classical Item Riccardo Stracciari - Operatic Showcase	You have to wonder why they included English translations of the titles while showing that they are sung in Italian. [YouTube Video]
Gill Sans SUBS ● 31st Oct 2024		Classical Item Various Artists - Classics For Kids	Wiegenlied: [YouTube Video]
Gill Sans SUBS ● 30th Oct 2024		Classical Item Arthur Rubinstein - Chopin, Mozart And Villa-Lobos	Rubenstein plays Mozart, conducted by Otmar Nussio. [YouTube Video]

Gill Sans SUBS ● 26th Oct 2024		Classical Item Pro Arte Orchestra - Handel: Music For The Royal Fireworks	Recorded in a night-time session as only then were 26 oboe players available. The recording was praised for Mackerras' pioneering of historical performance of Handel.
Gill Sans SUBS ● 24th Oct 2024		Classical Item Choirs Of Christ Church Cathedral, Fredericton, New Brunswick - Music For The Nativity Of The Christ Child	This must be very interesting to hear. "Rutland" seems to be a set of 'changes' being rung upon the theme "Surprise Major"
Gill Sans SUBS ● 17th Oct 2024		Classical Item English String Orchestra - Vaughan Williams · Works For String Orchestra	Five Variants Of Dives And Lazarus: [YouTube Video]
Gill Sans SUBS ● 17th Oct 2024		Classical Item Orchestra And Chorus Of La Scala Opera House, Milan - Il Trovatore	"You know this one" Not sure I do, MM, can you find a replacement video and replace your comment?
Gill Sans SUBS ● 13th Oct 2024		Classical Item Royal Ballet School - Royal Ballet School Gala Concert	I've no idea who the composer Tewsley could be; the only Tewsley I can find via Google is a ballet dancer from New York.
Gill Sans SUBS ● 12th Oct 2024		Classical Item The Choir Of Hereford Cathedral - Choral Evensong From Hereford Cathedral	The Office hymn, plainchant Mode VIII: [YouTube Video]
Gill Sans SUBS ● 11th Oct 2024		Classical Item Eva Bernathova - Quintet In F Minor	Agreed, now changed to 'Europe', which is now linked to the other Supraphon editions.
Gill Sans SUBS ● 7th Oct 2024		Classical Item Wells Cathedral Choir, Malcolm Archer - Malcolm Archer · Cathedral Music	[YouTube Video]
Gill Sans SUBS ● 7th Oct 2024		Classical Item Various Artists - Concert Choice	Further, Teresa Carreno (1853 – 1917) had recorded this track on a Welte-Mignon piano roll, so it sounds probable that the West Cornwall Museum of Mechanical Music made this album from recordings played on one or more player pianos in their collection. [YouTube Video]
Gill Sans SUBS ● 7th Oct 2024		Classical Item Various Artists - Concert Choice	Interesting to see this one-off record on this label, it sounds as if there could be more. The recordings themselves are historical; Theodor Leschetizky died in 1915, and Mischa Levitzki in 1941. The pianist "Miss Maria Zucca" is an interesting addition to our artists, this is the second mis-spelling I have seen, "Maria" along with "Manna", both are excusable for an artist who only worked under the stage name Mana-Zucca.
