Here are the rules of this project:

Everyone can add one work every day, but then they have to remove a work. The same person is not allowed to add the same work twice within a month once it has been removed. Other people can add that work anytime again (within the limits of one per day). You can not remove the same work twice within a month. Most importantly, have fun! This is not a perfect list of the best works, but a list where we want to highlight some good works. Discussions are welcomed. Bashing is not.

After Klavierspieler:

I'm adding a short piece by Shostakovich, The Assault on Beautiful Gorky. That's the name by which it's commonly known these days, but its original title was The Assault on the Red Hill, and it was composed as part of the soundtrack for a film named The Unforgettable Year 1919. It's the first piece I ever heard by Shostakovich--see what you think of it:



Removing--not Barber this time, because his violin concerto is a great piece, but rather Brahms's Nänie, now that his Symphony No. 3 is on the list (although my personal favourite Brahms work is Symphony No. 1).

In that case you are forgiven for removing the Enigma Variations....

Regarding Kalevi Aho, I have four of his symphonies on CD (though not No. 9) that I haven't listened to yet. I think I had better make a start on that.

I thinks the rules are: The same person that add the work cant add it again within a month from removal. I think that is why we started to list the removed pieces. Am I wrong? So unfortunately I dont think I can add the Goldmark conserto until 23.12. Am I wrong?

Adding:
Monti: Czardas
I have loved this piec since long before I started to listen seriously to classical music. I dont like the over-orchestrated versions. But when the violinist is alloud to be very virtuos, I simply love it!

I will probably learn to like vocal music eventually. But this work I think is actually a little boring.

Adding another concerto. This is I think my favourite violin concerto.

Removing:
Removing my own addition, Mendelssohn: Violin Concerto. It is absolutely very good, but I find the Bruch conserto slightly better. And since I am one of few participating in here, I remove my own addition, so that the list is not "my list". Hope some others will come back and participate.
And since we have the thread of removed works, no addition will be deletet, even if it is removed from the list.

I suggestet it for sirculation, and maybe some temperature discussions. remember, the list is a showcase! The removed works wont dissapear. I am a part time potter, and I participate in a collective of potters, and we have a little shop. What is to be shown in the window is always a matter of discussions. We sirculate our works, and the removed works get a nice place elsewhere in the shop.

Think of it as a showcase! Removed works will be showcased in the removal thread, and works can be added again. And it is not so serious!

Sorry Oskaar, I've been reluctant to remove other people's works, but since no one is participating - maybe I can get away without them finding out about it!
You don't need to worry about removing other people's works. I've started a companion thread to list them all, and I'll be updating it at the end of each month.

As for myself, I'm still participating, but I've been very busy with other things over the last few days, and I haven't had much chance to think of something new to add.

Adding:

Takemitsu: From Me Flows What You Call Time
As part of the point of this was originally to make a place for favorite works that have not succeeded in the original classical music project, I think this is highly appropriate. Personally, this work is dear to me because it was the first post-WWII work that I really loved, way back in high school when it blew my mind. This is classical? It remains my favorite Takemitsu work, and I really believe it is phenomenal. It is hard for me to imagine not liking it.

Removing:
Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring
This is also a favorite work, one that I've always really loved. However, it came in 6th on the original project, a very healthy showing, so we can afford to miss it here.
