Jowcol, many thanks to you and Mr Miller for your latest installment of Blackwood, for which I have been waiting patiently but with eager anticipation!

Looking forward to it!  Many thanks in advance!

Do you ever get the feeling that the owners of some of these youtube channels may already be among us?

Penderecki is trying to out-Pettersson Pettersson.

All too true, I fear, Colin.   >:(

Found by random web search, dated Jan 30 (2013?):

"I understand that Penderecki's Sixth Symphony is to be premiered this
 weekend in München with James Levine as conductor. Would like to hear
 any feedback from anyone who's able to attend."

Can anybody verify or otherwise elaborate on this?

Out of sheer idle curiosity rather than any particular need to know, can anybody here, better informed than me, tell me exactly what's on the go with Penderecki's sixth symphony?  I gather that for some reason it lies in a Petterssonian state of incompletion, and that's as much as I know.  Its absence from my recently acquired Naxos box is an offence to my sense of symmetry and wholeness...

Many thanks to you, Jowcol, as well as the ubiquitous Mr Miller, for the Antheil, Blackwood, and Bolcolm selections, most especially the Blackwood, for whose music (as you've probably gathered by now) I've developed a bit of an obsession.  I really wish Cedille would record the middle three symphonies, but until then I'll happily depend on your generosity.  Any of Blackwood's microtonal works would be happily and gratefully received!

Not that I would presume to put words in anybody's mouth, but I suspect as well it was intended to be slightly tongue-in-cheek.

Thanks Gauk.  I've downloaded both but haven't yet properly listened to them (the great drawback of my rather orgiastic down loading activities-there's often a significant gap between when I download something and when I actually listen to it).

Once again, many thanks!

While trawling (not trolling) through the UC Downloads Archive earlier tonight, attempting to retrieve a few more performances before they vanish into the ether, I discovered that several pieces by Romanian composer Paul Richter (symphonies 3 & 5 and suite no 2), originally posted, I believe, by Fr8nks, are no longer available.  I wonder if anybody would be able to either restore the UC links or re-upload these files here?  Many thanks!

I am probably less well informed than you erudite gentlemen on the life and times of T. Khrennikov, other than a very generalized awareness of his reputation as a musico-political ogre and generally unsavoury character,  but I must confess, I do enjoy his music (sorry, Tapiola!).  Why, indeed, should the devil have all the best tunes?
225  MEMBERS' CORNER / Miscellany / Re: What has happened to classicalmusiconline.net?! on: April 20, 2013, 04:14:09 am
Hmmm, still seems to be there (or back, possibly) for me, although I didn't actually attempt a download.
