Qmwne235 Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 ^I know Shosty 8! I like his 6th (of which even fewer people know) better personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deaconbomb Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Mine has been flip-floping between Eric Whitacre's "Sleep" and "When David Heard" since October. Yet I must say Schubert's "Maginficat" was forefront at Christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajamesu Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Stravinsky's Rite of Spring Shostakovich's Symphony No. 5 Bartok's Piano Concerto No. 2 Bartok's Concerto for Orchestra Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 23 "Appassionata" And this other piece I can't identify :/ I'm assuming the label is wrong, unless it's a Concerto the LAPO played other than the Bartok one, but I'm unable to find out. Concerto For Orchestra by Los Angeles Philharmonic -- Listen to Free Music If you happen to know, please PM me the title, composer and performer, if possible. Many thanks!

kromatozomika Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Mine changes constantly as well. I don't know if this counts as a favorite yet - only heard it once, and, given the circumstances, probably won't get to hear it again for awhile. But... tonight, on public radio...from a simulcast of the NJSO Neeme J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rautavaara Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 :O Are you studying with George Benjamin?!?!?! :O Haha, no. Well, not yet anyway. He is resident here, but he only teaches a select few postgraduate students. He does give the odd awe-inspiring lecture here though. His last one was on Messiaen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedalpoint Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Capriccio espagnol, Rimsky-Korsakov Concerto for Oboe, Strings, and Continuo in D Minor, Alessandro Marcello (except the C minor version is better IMHO) Symphony No. 7, Beethoven (but really only the second movement) About the Beethoven: Just listening to it, I actually like the first two movements, and the third to a point. But when I was actually playing it, the only movement I could stand was the second. Does anyone else notice how actually playing something and just listening to it tends to color perceptions of a piece? Or is it just me?

oboeducky Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 D minor is better. :whistling: You're such an oboe-geek. Why don't you play it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedalpoint Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 D minor is better. :whistling:You're such an oboe-geek. Why don't you play it? I do. I forgot to edit that into my profile, though :O EDIT: I will say the D minor version has its merits, but I like the overall sound of the C minor version better because it sounds darker.

mahler Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 DER RING DES NIBELUNGEN, Richard Wagner (which is the perfect unicycle/music drama) and Symphony 6, Mahler (which is the perfect symphony). I also love "Le sacre du Printemps", Dvorak`s 4th symphony(NOT the eight, according to the new numbers) and Eine Alpensinfonie, Richard Strauss. But above all DER RING DES NIBELUNGEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
