What's your favorite recording of Franck's Violin Sonata in A Major?
I've tried finding several of the recommended versions on slsk, specifically this recording:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fhts3Ioz1M
but no luck. I can't even find a good quality DL of any performance of it.

Kijé is really good.
Shame it isn't longer

seconding this
Does anyone have a link to some good recordings of Vivaldi's Mandolin Concerto in C major, as well as Bach's Magnificat?
How do I into Prokofiev?
>>64155043
First set fire to a house nearby, then you wait.
>>64154155
Beethoven
>>64155043
Lt. Kije and Romeo and Juliet are good starting places.
>>64155043
He has some pieces that are practically late-Romantic, Lt. Kieje, ALexander Nevsky, Romeo and Juliet, but these aren't really Prokofiev.
Real Prokofiev was ruthlessly sarcastic (Scythian Suite), bitter (D minor sonata no. 2 part 1), fiercely independent/creative (Toccata) but also beautifully mystical (Visions Fugitives).

Butterworth's Shropshire Lad is a lot more touching than I remember it being.

I should watch it too, Schäfer is usually excellent.

Anyone have a download for this?
Why do Saint-Saens' piano concerti get so little airtime? They're just as good as the Russian romantic mush that gets wheeled out constantly
>>64163206
I don't know, they're pretty great. I especially like the 5th with it's evoking of bell-esque sounds.
spicy Brahms
Hey guys can somebody here with more experience tell me what these are and how they are realized? I'm listening to the piece (it's Petrushka by Stravinsky) and am wondering if that trill-like sound that the clarinets are making is indicated by this.
>>64165725
Tremolo markings. Basically alternate between the two notes as though it were a bar of semiquavers alternating between the two notes.
It's mostly used for the string parts creating that sort of 'excited' sound (can't think of a better word), but you sometimes see it elsewhere
>>64165841
Wow thanks man!
So what does the direction they point to (up/down) indicate?
>>64165841
>>64166789
Actually, I think I see now - and, correct me if I'm wrong, but the tremolo markings basically point in the same direction as the contrapuntal motion right?
>>64165725
>>64165841
You can hear it in the beginning of Mahler's 7th Symphony, though very few recordings actually capture it well.
>>64165725
what's the point of the 16th notes in the 5 last bars of clarinet?
>>64167207
Last five bars....?
In any case those are tied, so they are meant to show duration of the tremolo. On the second staff it also shows which voice (aka which clarinet) is actually playing as well, but in both accounts it shows duration like any typically tied note would.
