Re: Could this be the solution to Elgar's Enigma?

I think this should be left to the Experts, who know ELGARS music.... But I ditto on the contrary to PML's post. No one knows Elgar's music but Elgar, its probably why he wrote as Cryptic Portraiture, as the Violin Concerto is another fine specimen of this Nature.. The concerto is dedicated to Kreis...

Re: Most Unusual Pieces

Needless to say, yes. You do hold that opinion to Judge or Discriminate such work, but I was actually pointing out what he uses as to forms or technical processes of 20th Century Composition. Is any one here, had any form of comprehensive training in 20th Century Composition Techniques? I'm kind-of ...

Re: Best complete Beethoven sonata cycle

I have lied, being a collector I should have known.. There is a DG box set of The Barenboim 1st Cycle. But the Original Recordings are out-of-print.. Ashkenazy's recording are splendid, and there is a budget box set. And I believe he too recorded most of the Sonatas twice.. (But for different Labels)

Re: Best complete Beethoven sonata cycle

Yes, I too am completely surprised no has mentioned Barenboim. I own both sets of recordings (original releases) the 1st one on Duetsche Grammophon is out-of-print, although I think its most likely available through amazon. But then you'll most likely pay a quite a bit for it used though.. I haven't...

Re: Orchestral Parts Project

I've noticed that you guys have Complete Parts to the Majority of Wagner's Operas, and some Offenbach Opera Buffa.. Will there be any Mozart, Puccini, Verdi or Rossini in near future?
