Sibelius’ Kullervo was premiered on 28 April 1892. It is astonishing to think the soundworld Sibelius created with this work effectively came from nowhere. With it Sibelius defined a new idea of what Finnish music might be. What are your favourite recordings of Kullervo?
If you see this post a trio.
#NowSpinning Delius Hassan. I’ve only ever heard excerpts, so looking forward to this!
#NowSpinning Abbado’s Berlin Beethoven 1. Enjoying this a lot.
Remembering Olivier Messiaen, who died 32 years ago today. His astonishing music is still an absolute goldmine of discovery for me. Which Messiaen works have you been listening to recently?

Remembering Mstislav Rostropovich, who died on 27 April 2007. It is hard to believe he left us 17 years ago now. If you could own only one Rostropovich recording, which would it be?

I just want you to know that I am quite angry with @deeplyclassical right now. I had managed to block this out of my mind, but OH NO. You just had to go and waft its box set loveliness under my uncontrolled, greedy, RECKLESS nose.
#NowSpinning the rest of this disc, including the Prelude from the 49th Parallel, The Running Set, the Prelude on and old Carol Tune and the Sea Songs March. Such vibrancy and tuneful loveliness. The Running set is thrillingly done here!

Ravel’s Tzigane was premiered, in its original Violin and Piano guise, on 26 April 1924. Another work hits a round century! The orchestral version was brought before the public shortly afterwards, in October 1924. What are your favourite Tziganes on record? Any fans out there?
And #NowSpinning the Five Mystical Songs from the same disc. Oh so stunning. This is surely as gorgeous as any of RVW’s vocal works.

@AlexeyZiskin @LoveInner Alexey is probably a big fan of Karajan 60’s cycle. 😂
@marcelobborelli @LoveInner I take Karajan’s 60’s cycle any day over Abbado. It’s a no brainer! But Karajan is not my favorite Beethoven interpreter, though there are some wonderful interpretations in that first Berlin cycle!
@AlexeyZiskin @LoveInner I’ll not blame you, even if it’s your favorite. It’s a classic and better than the vast majority of what I listened from others.
@LoveInner What you are missing in this Eroica is a real conductor, not just someone who manages the orchestra. That’s often times the problem with Abbado in this repertoire (Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Brahms) - he is absent!
@AlexeyZiskin @LoveInner I've always considered him to not be a very good Beethoven conductor, although I thought he improved and was better later in his career than he was when he recorded his VPO cycle. But I do think he was an excellent Brahms conductor. Having said that, I saw him lead a very good…
@BarryZukerman @LoveInner Apart from his early DG Academic Festival, I never liked any of his Brahms. I just find it middle of the road, bland, and ultimately boring. Oh, and his Mendelssohn is wildly overrated. I find Abbado very successful & effective in the Russian repertoire.
If you see this post a trio.
@LoveInner Excellent version of the Second! The First is not as good. Impressive yes, but not very musical.
@LoveInner I think he was trying a more historically informed approach at the time. That's maybe the fussy part about it, beacuse we're dealing with modern instruments. I can't remember the Eroica, but I liked the Ninth.
@LoveInner It should really be a Rostropovich recording of one of the many works he commissioned, but it would actually be one - any one - of his recordings of the Dvorak concerto.
