This was the program from the Dallas Symphony concert that I went to a couple of weeks ago. It's not the same without Jaap van Zweden, but the guest conductor did a pretty good job. Had great control of the orchestra with a pretty dynamic performance. -

The music world lost a giant in Sam Pilafian Friday night. I never had the fortune of meeting the man myself, everybody that has all say the same thing. He was a wonderful human being with a never ending passion for music. His recordings with the Empire Brass and solo jazz recordings are what... -

Took some time away from Head-Fi and come back to a couple dozen new posts on this thread. I have plenty to listen to at work today. -

Being a bit nostalgic and remembering my days in concert band. The first one is an orchestral arrangement, but this is a fantastic performance. -

Some more love for Russia. Make sure that you have time to listen to these before you start. Both are over an hour. -

I think that this is the first time that I've seen Pergolesi get any love outside of my music history classes. Another round of Russian "holiday" music. -

I'll make time to listen to a staple of the repertoire like this. I own the Herbert von Karajan bluray with Seiji Ozawa conducting this and Anne-Sophie Mutter performing the solo, but it was a somewhat uninspiring performance. Technically, it was very clean, just not very fun. Dallas Wind... -

Don't remember if I already posted this or not, but I've had the final movement stuck in my head since I saw the Dallas Symphony perform this about a year ago. I wouldn't consider Jaap Van Zweden to be another Kleiber, but he is one of the better living conductors. Always energetic with very... -

Would like multiple times if I could. Dvorak is in my top 3 favorites, especially his 7th, 8th and 9th symphonies. -

Follow up to Mahler, Hans Rott might be one of the greatest unknown composers from the Romantic Era. Ridiculed by Brahms as having no talent he lost any self confidence, which is displayed by his lack of output. He was admired by Bruckner and Mahler, the latter having a good friendship... -

I had a chance to study with this man when I went to UNT. He is pretty much the guy when it comes to Euphonium. Absolutely fantastic musician. Too bad I can't find any recordings of him from when he was in his prime. -

The Hifiman does require some power to really open up, but once you do give it some power it's great for large symphonic works. Very detailed with great imaging and soundstage. The soundstage sounds very true, not the usual 3 areas of sound. The Sennheiser HD600 are also great very classical... -

I've been looking for a good guitar version of this. This is one of the pieces from the Oystein Baadsvik video that I posted a few videos back. I didn't realize that it was about the winters in Buenos Aires. -

Found the Kubelik recording after I posted the other one, but I don't mind listening to this two times in a row.
