Baritone Michael Spyres performing Rossini's "Largo al factotum" at the Royal Albert Hall is the kind of thing that makes you remember why opera exists. Pure vocal power and charisma from start to finish. 🎭🎶

#Review: The Exoplanets @HackneyEmpire.bsky.social ★★★
"In theory this is a project to be admired: new music created in response to an almost ethereal concept and a collaboration between two, often opposing, disciplines."

This excerpt is another time eater, but I'm getting the hang of it now. Also Dittersdorf (a contemporary of Mozart)

Frankly, I think both recordings are in the stunningly awesome electrifying hair-raising & breathtaking category!!!
A plus of the studio recording, besides better sound: the strings of the Wiener Philharmoniker.

In my opinion, the 1956 studio recording is a wonderful, exciting performance in good stereo. Some reviewers have called it weak; I disagree completely!!! But I am just a simple listener. The 1959 live recording, in listenable mono, is equally inspired, I think. #KnappertsbuschRules #classicalmusic

#Music Orchestre classique de Montréal’s “From Chopin to Weinberg” showcased standout guest soloists and a strong national-theme concept—ending with Weinberg’s Chamber Symphony No. 1. Review notes recurring ensemble intonation issues that need attention. Thoughts? #ClassicalMusic #Montreal
#Music Christina Rossetti’s sonnet “Rest” (1862) imagines death as calm, healing sleep. Ralph Vaughan Williams later set it for unaccompanied choir—glowing briefly in D major at “paradise” before fading to a hush. Thoughts on this pairing of poem and music? #Poetry #ClassicalMusic
