Monday, May 29, 2006. Guitar music is a foreign art to me, and Spanish music even more so. The two find a natural fit in Albeniz's Asturias, a piece originally for piano virtuoso, but even more stunning as a guitar showpiece. Angel Romero strums his fingers off in this youTube video.

Saturday, May 13, 2006. Beethoven Symphonies for Piano. Well, it seems as though playing the Beethoven Symphonies on Piano has become popular again. Naxos are lacking just the final disc to complete their survey - No's 7 and 8 to go, and I've just been listening to this performance of the No 9. Not overly impressed, it seems to lack fire, and the piano itself is quite tinny - it needs some serious meat, more bass definitely. Be unimpressed by Naxos here. A Sort of Notebook.

Thursday, May 18, 2006. Here's one I haven't come across before. Christopher Herrick did a complete Bach Organ Cycle for Hyperion, released back in 2002. Sixteen discs and 288 works of Organ Madness. In the meantime, I think Herrick gets my vote for OrganMeister - spritely and conceptual, have a blast here.

Friday, May 19, 2006. Dictionary of Musical Themes. Barlow and Morgenstein's classic 1948 work is available online. Frustrated at the time, or probably bored during the war, Barlow and Morgenstein wanted a resource that indexed the works of the most important classical composers. What they came up with was sheer genius, in that it not only was a textual catalogue, but also a musical one - all the works listed quoted the main theme from each movement. Sheer wizardry, 10 000 themes to browse forever, here.

Tuesday, May 16, 2006. For those with a bit of bandwidth to spare, you can treat yourself to a video of Horowitz playing Chopin's Third Sonata. Horowitz's attack at the piano is unique - he's like some sort of primitive warrior hurling javelins at heaven - a crisp, crunching sound, no pedal to mask imperfections in timing.

Sunday, May 14, 2006. Given to moments of self-doubt and introspection, I decided to punch in "classical music blog" into google, and see what I came back with. How was I faring, a young player in an old game? The results are disappointing, truly. That dame from the north, Jessica Duchen, wins pole-position with a well-named blog, Pretenza 21, as the Monk calls it, polls second, then Sandow and Alex Ross. Institutional players to say the least. Verify my non-existence here. It's yours for the taking.
