Thanks, tonybob. I have the Schornheim Haydns and have been very pleased with them, so in a way I was hoping that these Schuberts would live up to that experience. Perhaps I'll investigate; it's a decent price after all.

Oh I do like this D960 as played by Uchida. Worth the £15.99 for this alone, but there's another 7 CDs of such playing included.
Have I missed from where you sourced that purchase at such a price? I ordered them from Amazon UK a little over aweek ago. The price has since gone up considerably, I'm sorry to report. |

It's worth saving it in your basket for later and check it frequently - the prices fluctuate quite often - I picked up mine for £15.99 back in October.

Just ordered the Endres set for less £8.54 including p&p. Hoping they are different enough in approach form the Uchida, yet still valid.

Xenakis - complete works for percussion (3 CDs, relatively new on Mode), played by Steve Schick and friends. ... Highly recommended, as they say, and not just for the converted.
Concur entirely, Richard. This is quite some set. Good to see that a 5.1 DVD of Kraanerg is in the pipeline, too. Persephassa could have done with a 6.0 surround recording, but the two channel stereo we have on these CDs is really quite spectacular. |

Tonights concerts on gramophone records:

Enjoying the Mahler so far, I am involved in and not excluded from proceedings.

Charles Daniels singing Machaut's Liement me deport. To be followed I suspect by a little Telemann before bed.

Cheers Ollie.
The Rattle 6 was purchased on your recommendation. A spontaneous sounding young mans view. Excellent.

Schubert 8th and 9th symphonies - Menuhin (The EMI 50 CD Box). I sampled a few bits from Ciccolini's D960 earlier, but quickly gave up on it. Clara Wurtz in the Brilliant Classics 40 CD Schubert Masterworks box is far closer to my taste. Fortunately I can clean my ears out with Uchida, and Demus (fortepiano - builder and date unspecified).

Did you ever get round to the Zinman Strauss CDs, Bryn ?

I'm very pleased. Let me know how the shampoo goes. 
PS: Is there a link here between the Rattle live Berlin 6 and the shampoo thread by the way? I ask only because I'm looking at the cover photo now...  |
