Well i seem to be a late bloomer at times?
For me its all Samual Barber right now.
Wow, am i ever impressed with his beautiful writing, big time!
I want to get the box set from Naxos that has the six Orchestral Works all
in one shot, i will give my recording to someone that i think can use it. I think its called paying it forward?
Samual Barber is my new project. And i found it right here, i saw so many Barber disks on the like board
that i just had to see what this was all about?
Now im just starting and cant stop with this composer...

Shostakovich: Preludes & Fugues No.19, 21, 22
Profofiev: Piano Sonata No.8

Sviatoslav Richter, piano

I think that a recording of Schoenberg's "Verklärte Nacht" just opened my ears to both chamber music and atonal music, neither of which I have much liked before!

I feel violated! But it feels good, too... and I feel dirty for that! What did you just do, Mr Schoenberg?!?
