Bruckner: Symphony No. 9 - Mehta | Gordon Lilley - November 23, 2024

This is an excellent recording from the golden age of Decca/ Culshaw/ Vienna. Recorded on May 7, 1965 in the Sofiensaal, it was shortly before Decca embarked on the final Ring ...

Bruckner: Symphonies 7 & 8 - Solti | Gordon Lilley - November 24, 2024

This is a companion release to the Mehta Bruckner 9 but is rather less impressive, I fear. The Solti 7th was recorded in the Sofiensaal on 28th of October, 1965, just 3 days ...

Shostakovich: Symphonies 1-15 - Barshai | DYB - Today 11:49 am

Deep Purple: Live on the BBC | Rafael Méndez - October 30, 2024

This is without a doubt the worst sound record I have in my SACD collection; in fact, it is much inferior to a standard CD. Furthermore, this live recording on the BBC is ...
