Don't know the playing of Horowitz for Liszt, I'm very selective. I don't know definitve versions of these works, Cziffra is very good, but a little bit excessive. Love Jorge Bolet too for Liszt.

Horowitz is definitely up there with Cziffra and Bolet. Too bad he didn't record that many of the Hungarian Rhapsodies. Neither did Bolet. Andsnes is also very good in Liszt in the few works he's recorded (the Mephisto waltzes, among others). Bespin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jurassic Shark 12,054 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 €10 including shipping within Europe. I've seen it listed at approx. the same price several times earlier - you just gotta have patience. Naïve Old Fart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,000 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 6 hours ago, Jurassic Shark said: What's your opinion on the expanded Prince of Thieves? It's a very nice expansion. I'm not that massive of a fan of this score. It always struck me as bit piecemeal kind of an experience with a strange combination of various sensibilities. But I also admit that probably has to do with the fact the original album was always a very disappointing listening experience. It started out ok but never offered any substantial resolution to anything. Now I do now that is because a lot of the material remained unreleased. The new set certainly rectifies that and sounds bit better as well. So I'm quite happy with it but also had a chance to only listen to it once so far (there are other purchases there as well!). And more Kamen in my collection is always good. Karol Jurassic Shark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurassic Shark 12,054 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Thanks for your mini-review. I agree that the OST presentation was disappointing - I had the same issues with it as you. It's great to get a confirmation that the expansion is worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crocodile 8,000 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 The score is not a masterpiece of any kind but it's a very enjoyable one with some interesting colours. And this release is the only way to experience it because there was a lot of material missing from previous release.
