A little Liszt goes a long way for me. I think Howard recorded every note that he ever wrote. They ought to condense it into a 3 CD package of “greatest hits for those of us that want to sample his playing and don’t want the 109 or so CDs
Classical Music - Check this out!!

I'm starting a Classical Music (cd) Collection and this seems to be a great resource.
I know this is a lot to ask, but most of the recommendation links are broken. Anyone have some suggestions as to which are the best renditions of each work?
TIA

Well there used to be the Schwann catalogue (if anyone remembers) but you kinda had to know what you wanted. There's the ArkivMusic website; https://arkivmusic.com/ ArkivMusic has gone through a lot of changes over the years. They had an enormous catalogue with many reviews from ClassicsToday however that seems to be no more. It's probably still worth looking at. I'm also a +1 on the ClassicsToday website however some reviews are free and some only come with a subscription. Gramophone magazine lists recommended recordings and reviews.https://www.gramophone.co.uk/ I would advise subscribing to Gramophone for information regarding classical musicians and recordings. They've been around for a long time, so their archives are informative and entertaining. And compared to all of the other classical music magazines in English, I believe they are the best. If you can read French, Diapson is equal to Gramophone; .https://www.diapasonmag.fr/ |
