A brand new release today of my favorite interpreters of Haydn’s quartets doing the Op. 64 set and, as with their other releases in this ongoing cycle, it’s sublime.

A superb disc of mostly theater music from 17th Century England:

Otto Klemperer, Philharmonia Orchestra ‎– The Romantic Tchaikovsky Symphonies

With the older Vandersteen 2Ci in new listening location based on the manual, listening to the 6th to hear how they handle the orchestra. They did well with rock and jazz, but a pair of 3A Signatures may be in my future to handle classical.

Mahler* - Concertgebouw-Orchester, Amsterdam, Bernard Haitink ‎– Sinfonie Nr.5, Adagio (Sinfonie Nr.10)

The 5th - A nice clean import from Holland I picked up for $1 in my initial rush to collect classical.

Editorial Reviews

I Lombardi reaches its apotheosis in the famous Trio, well known from the days of 78 rpm recordings. There are some glorious moments and the phrasing if often impressive. Domingo as Oronte is in superb voice, and the villain Pagano is well characterised by Raimondi. Among the supporting cast Stafford Dean and Clifford Grant must be mentioned. Gardelli conducts dramatically and the action projects vividly. The Penguin Guide
