Unlike Christian Thielemann and Helmut Lachenmann, these did not spin. They are simply provided in elaboration of Andy's post.

I don't think polar bears like to spin.

I recently saw a video of a polar bear killing a walrus. It was really nasty. Undecided

In particular, Pulcinella.  I love this recording; it's full of a sort of sloppy and infectious enthusiasm.

Using a chamber choir and chamber orchestra in BWV 150 just sounds -- to me -- plain wrong. But BWV 67 (Halt im Gedächtnis) is one of my all-time favourite cantatas and is done quite well (some odd balance in the opening chorus, which seems to emphasise the less important musical elements). And then there's the weird chorale duet in BWV 42, with its strange but fascinating bassoon solo: an extraordinary movement.

Anyway, it was free ...  Cheesy

Black Dyke Band playing Wagner's Elsa's Procession to the Minster. Eletcryfying stuff this. A speciaql gathering of ex members and conductors. Quite a memorable evening at their 150th Anniversary concert.

Mieko Kanno playing Pärt's Fratres on the Durham University double CD to celebrate its 175th anniversary.
A shame that this has been rather eclipsed by the recording of the Jon Lord Durham Concerto, but given the number of performers featured on the recording who are no longer associated with the University, it seems a little bit like a white elephant now...
