2008-03-29 00:00:00 by newmusicrebloggers in New Music reBlog
 
...performances of Tristan and Isolde in a way resulting in considerable (generally, positive) media interest (including 4 (!) reviews in the New York Times, which will probably end up being 5) as well as a sold-out house In fact, what has happened is not that exceptional, the core issue being tenor Ben Heppner s (Tristan) withdrawal from the...

The limits of period performance

2008-01-08 20:39:00 by Patrick J. Smith in The Penitent Wagnerite
 
...performance that, while others come close, none equal. The sound, despite being from 1957, is none of the best, and it is a demerit to Walter Legge that he didn't record the collaborations - which were, more or less, his brainchild. I also like the Fritz Reiner/Van Cliburn record, which was recently re-released on RCA (i.e., Sony) Living...

...performance of 4'33 ( no shit, here's the performance of it that I went to ). Telling the Roulette team that I dug John Cage the mostest, they gleefully informed me that instead of gettin' paid to write, I would in fact be paid off in freebies... one of which was a Cage gig.

2008-04-19 01:19:37 by HASH0x8b5b9dc in MusicNewsBlog.info
 
...Performance Hall, recorded in January 2007, captures the spirit of that magnificent tour Buckingham thrives in the intimate setting, the ruminative tone of his newer material casting an entrancing and illusory pall over much of the performance. His finger-picking style of guitar playing sustains the delicate melodies of Not Too Late and Shut...
