Amazing record from CBS Masterworks Portraits series: Mozart the Complete Flute Quartets: Rampal - Stern - Schneider - Rose. And thanks Mr Kuruvilla Jacob for sending this wonderful record my way .

Gave me new-found respect for Jean-Pierre Rampal's flute. Need to dig out that double CD of Rampal that I have lying somewhere.

Recommendation: pick up whatever CBS Masterworks and Masterworks Portrait you come across. They are usually very good. Like this.

I don't know how but vkirti, you keep posting the same record titles with exactly same album arts that I have in my collection. Forces me to infer at least 2 things: that we have very similar taste at least in this genre of music (old hindi classics) and most likely our sources are same too.

Regards.

Harry Belafonte , Live at Carnegie Hall..

My children are enjoying it, and waiting for the Banana Boat song to come..

One of my favourite recordings and I really love the 'Matilda' track. I even have the Classic Records version of it as an 8 LP set @ 45rpm pressed only on one side! Have stowed another brand new copy of the same away as an investment.hyeah:

I think we definitely share the same taste in music , also we seem to have turned to vinyl at the same time so seem to be picking up the same albums.

Currently listening to " Kabhi palkon pe ansoon hai" by KK in Harzaee ... beautiful song...

Grieg's Piano Concerto in A Minor, Op 16, John Ogdon piano, New Philharmonia Orch, Paavo Berglund cond. The B side is Schumann's Piano Concerto in A Minor.

I like this album so much I went and bought myself a second copy.

I think i have a soft corner for piano as well as violin concertos in minor keys.

Dear VKirti,

Thanks, yes it is a very good sounding LP. I particularly like the first number by Lataji " Aa ja sare Bazaar" one of her underrated numbers i think.

Was spinning Getz/Gilberto feat. Antonio Carlos Jobim. The album is a deadly combination of Joao Gilberto's relaxing vocals, Stan Getz's breathy sax, and Astrud Gilberto's limited vocal range but nevetheless charming vocals.

Right now it is Horizon by Carpenters. This includes a cover of the Eagles' Desperado. Carpenters always brings back warm and fuzzy memories of early childhood.

Spinning Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto in D Major, Op 35, probably ranking as one of my all-time favourite western classical pieces. The violinist on this record is Christian Ferras, with the Philharmonia Orchestra, Constantin Silvestri conducting.

I just heard another version of the same composition with David Oistrakh playing the violin.

Incidentally, on both records the B sides are Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto in E Minor Op 64.

Incidentally, I have the SACD copy of the same Tchaikovsky Concerto by Joshua Bell. A very fine interpretation by someone who is considered one of the finest living violinists.

These two pieces seem to be very popular with violin virtuosos.
