The Barylli Quartet
with
Wilhelm Huebner, viola

BEETHOVEN: Quartet in B Flat Major, Op. 18, Nº 6
BEETHOVEN: Quintet in C Major Op. 29 ("Storm")
BEETHOVEN: Quartet Nº 13 in B Flat Major, Op. 130
BEETHOVEN: Quartet Nº 14 in C Sharp Minor, Op. 131

$20.00 / 2 CD set

These performances are absolute perfection! We paid small fortune to acquire the super-quiet Westminster red label LP to make this long awaited re-release and we are thrilled with the results, superb chamber music recordings from Vienna.

Ernest Ansermet,       Pierre Monteux   Conductors

IN REHEARSAL:
BERLIOZ Symphony Fantastique (all 5 movements) - Ansermet
BEETHOVEN Symphony No. 3 "Eroica" (2nd movement) - Monteux

$12.00 per CD

Both rehearsals are in French but don't let that put you off. Both conductors convey what they want by a great deal of singing musical phrases along with Italian, the language of music.   To listen to both of these giants at work is very fascinating. Ansermet rehearses his Suisse Romande Orchestra and Monteux rehearses the Concertgebouw Orchestra, Amsterdam. The psychology of persuasion used by Monteux is not only effective but amusing.   ALL IN STEREO

Eugene Ormandy,
Conductor
Philadelphia Orchestra

ALBÉNIZ: Iberia (Complete)

$12.00 per CD

One of the very last mono only Columbia recordings of the Philadelphia Orchestra, first issued in 1956 on a two LP set featuring all 12 Albéniz "Iberia" tone poems about Spain as arranged for orchestra. Ormandy was very much at home with this music and the orchestra responds with all the brilliance and lushness one would expect from the Philadelphians.

Philadelphia Orchestra
E. Power Biggs, organist

TCHAIKOVSKY: Swan Lake Excerpts
SAINT-SAËNS: Symphony No. 3 "Organ"

$12.00 per CD

Recorded in
Symphony Hall, Boston

Here are two Philadelphia Orchestra favorites on one CD! Why favorites? Three special reasons: 1 - very spirited performances; 2 - Both recordings were made in the sublime acoustics of Symphony Hall, Boston and 3 - the exceptionally good mono sound. The orchestra was recorded on stage and the full breadth of the hall is captured in wonderful mono sound . TT: 78 minutes!   A best seller! E. Power Biggs plays the Aeolian-Skinner Symphony Hall Organ.

Jacques Ibert, Conductor
The Orchestra of the
Paris Opera

JACQUES IBERT
Les Amours de Jupiter   Based upon the Metamorphoses of Ovid
Escales

$12.00 per CD

Les Amours de Jupiter was composed in 1945 and is quite typical of the composer. Escales composed in 1922 is Ibert's most famous work. The music is performed with French orchestra incisiveness and with the usual strong brass and prominent, individual-sounding woodwinds.   I clean Capitol Wakefield pressing is the source of this transfer to CD.   HQ MP3 sample here

Hermann Scherchen, Conductor
Akademie Kammerchor
Vienna State Opera Orch.

MOZART: Requiem K. 626
Magda Laszlo,soprano; Hilde Rössel Majdan, contralto;
Petre Munteanu, tenor; Richard Standen, bass

$12.00 per CD

This music has been kicked around as background music for TV ads and the like, as if the creators could care less about the actual word translation of a Requiem Mass. Sad to say, many conductors who have recorded this music suffer from the very same ailment. What we have here, however, is no failure to communicate. Scherchen has latched on to the meaning and interprets it by way of Mozart. What a difference care can make. Truly a labor of love on all fronts: music, performance, recording and this transfer.

Hermann Scherchen, Conductor
Magda Laszlo, soprano
Fred Liewehr, narrator
Vienna State Opera Orch.

BEETHOVEN: Egmont
(Complete Incidental Music to Goëthe's play)

$12.00 per CD

Back in the catalog by popular demand. Truly a labor of love on all fronts: music, performance, recording and this transfer. The performance will leave you "limp-jawed"! The best "Egmont" music ever recorded, hands down. The narration is thoughtful and void of senseless hysteria.   Up-to-date dynamic rage and very good mono sound. \ HQ MP3 sample here
