J. S. BACH
MARBECKS COLLECTABLE: Bach: Great Organ Works (Includes Toccata & Fugue in D minor & Fantasia & Fugue in C minor) Peter Hurford (organ) [ Double Decca / 2 CD - released 15/Feb/2001 ] "This is how organ should sound. Hurford presents the organ as a grand, massive, visceral, roaring, lusty instrument. The reeds are biting and edgy and the mixtures are perfect for the intense polyphony." RateYourMusic |

RICHARD WAGNER
Wagner: An Introduction to Der Ring des Nibelungen (explanation and analysis by Deryck Cooke) Various Artists from the Georg Solti recordings [ Decca / 2 CD - released 23/Aug/2024 ] "The discourse is riveting; the music examples, many of them specially prepared, are clumsily inserted, but this is still a thoroughly worthwhile acquisition for those who already have recordings of the operas." Penguin Guide |
ALEXANDER SCRIABIN
MARBECKS COLLECTABLE: Scriabin: The Piano Sonatas Vladimir Ashkenazy (piano) [ Double Decca / 2 CD - released 22/Dec/2007 ] "My favorites, in terms of performance and discounting sound, are the 3rd, 6th, 8th and particularly the impulsive youthful 1st. I also like the 9th; here Ashkenazy manages a luminous pianissimo." (Amazon.com) |
