Home Classical Court

From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here.

Nice to see your comment after a bit of an absence on this particular forum!

Yes - the next time Ms. CfL and I go to London, we've got to go see the Philharmonia Orchestra (and the RPO too) in their native habitats! (Ms. CfL missed a chance to see them when she last visited her sister in Cambridge last year, and she's been kicking herself ever since! - she had a night to kill in London before her return flight the next morning and just spent it in the hotel room, not realizing she could have seen the Philharmonia that night!) Hopefully, our return visit to London will occur after a Covid vaccine appears - LOL! (BTW, when you say say the Philharmonia's home is at Southbank, do you mean (Royal) Festival Hall? That's where I saw the LPO last time I was there.)

Regarding that Staier recording, what's with all these additional temptations for me to backslide into apostasy? First it was ecl876 luring me back to the primrose path of vinyl, and now it's you tempting me towards a similarly unspeakable sidetrack of the fortepiano world. My resolve will not be undermined (although I was made to play a couple of fortepianos - against my will I'll have you know! - when I was a student, before they would let me graduate). ;-)
