Love this recording
Oh yes, bring out those lines. Can't remember if this is a new arrangement or one from Beethoven's time. I'm a bit of a collector of the latter.

That bad, eh?

I got in touch with their customer service, they said they wouldn't refund it, then the webpage says they would, up to €7. Money aside, the idea of having to go through this plus making a new order once it's been refunded, with more days to wait for the actual delivery, because of an issue affecting 2 minutes of a track out of a 20 disc set is giving me some headache 🫣.
I cleaned the disc with a dedicated tool and cleaning solution, the disc is clean and looks immaculate, I am trying to rip with Exact Audio Copy, it's been working on that track for several hours trying to get those errors fixed, tomorrow I will know if it's worked, either way it's surely defective 🙁.
I've returned countless of damaged orders to amazon.fr, amazon.de, and amazon.co.uk, and I've always got the return shipping refunded, although sometimes with some issues with customer service.
Three pieces of advice:
- If you still want the item, ask for a replacement, not a refund. Then they sometimes tells you to keep the damaged item. If you're asked to return the damaged item, you'll often receive the replacement before having to return, so if both are damaged you might be able to combine parts to create an undamaged set.
- If you're told to return the damaged item, use the cheapest shipping possible. They usually won't refund the whole expense of an expensive, tracked shipping.
- Some customer service people have no clue and will misinform you. If that happens, try again with another customer service person and play the part of an unhappy, but polite, customer.

Incidentally as I continue this novella, has anyone here heard the Beethoven Symphony trios with Emmanual Ax, Yo Yo, and Leonidas Kavakos? They're incredibly well done, but of course brought to life by the most amazing musicians.
I love chamber arrangements of Beethoven's symphonies, assuming, of course, that the arrangement is good.

Anyone heard Peter Boyer's Rhapsody in Red, White and Blue?
He should have called it Norwegian Rhapody.

I know. I was confused that you found the 12.5 minute score, which for me has a good deal of variety and excellent development of its thematic material, to be "too repetitive."
Perhaps I need to listen to it more, but to me it's repetitive calmness followed by a nice, grand finale.

Huh? It's like 12.5 minutes long! And it's got a good amount of material developed throughout, with each cue having a very different feel for the most part, even though there's a grand reprise.
I was referring to the score, not the fact that you posted two recordings.

Interesting review, worth a @Thoreaster egg in the comments!

Best thing they could do is to pay the remaining amount.

Sure is, and my favourite of his. But Goldsmith wrote a prologue.
Indeed, I didn't see it was the same piece posted twice. I'm afraid it's too repetitive to me.

Rankings are only my fourth favorite thing.
It's boring but I don't see how I can go with anything other than Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Front to back, top to bottom.
There are other Jerry scores I love, but nothing else really comes close.
I think I might have a slightly harder time with Williams. But I might like Star Trek: The Motion Picture more than those, too. (Maybe.)
What IS this? Other than gorgeous?
