used to listed to complete etudes of chopin as a kid which inspired me to play the piano. am a non professional pianist but been playing mozart, bach and liszt these days. dreaming to play fantasie impromptu c sharp minor of chopin and the italian concerto of bach
Yes, Peter123, it is. 
I was really stunned when I saw today that even I Musici (The former "Kings of cheese" or "Serious Rondo Veneziano" ) now perform "historically informed". They've stopped publishing new records in 1999 and went thinking behind closed doors for seven years before they came up with new stuff.
I commented and congratulated to the vid but I don't think it'll be up to read there because I wrote still prefer Il giardino armonico.

I wanted to present two youtube finds of mine, two fantastic ensembles.
Ensemble Pygmalion
This is going to be bought. I already have two recordings, but this soooooooo marvellous. It's very fast but I've got two slow versions already.
Purcell Quartet
Same here... It's very nice to have it the Rifkin-way (soloists instead of choir) and the voices are very characterful.

A sweet little musical joke
I'm very delighted to share this little treasure of Eduard Strauss.
He is usually the most unknown of the famous Strauss-Dynasty but composed so beautiful little pieces, such as the following little joke about the cell-phone
And as you will see, Mariss Jansons is gladly willing to play this little joke with finally smiling overall
Enjoy :heart:

Here is another beautiful little treasure and also a funny piece
of Johann Strauss named "Im Krapfenwaldl".
You will know what the piece is about when you hear it
There are a few flying "friends" appearing within the piece
and Georges Pretre is so charming and having fun in there all the time

In case of James Levine I heard fantastic news on radio because he could recover from his really severe health issues (he had several surgeries on his back)
Mister Levine said that he will be BACK on STAGE when the next season at the MET starts :thumbs up:
And for the sake of the Wagner and Verdi anniversaries which come to us in 2013 this will be wonderful to know that James Levine will be back and realizing some wonderful projects :heart:
@Tom - thanks for sharing this beautiful piece!

Something different which I think is quite impressive... I would try something like this at home but I would not have enough glasses and with no musical talent... best not to.
What this guy is able to do is in a word amazing!:thumbs up:This?
If then it's really great:thumbs up:

Symphony of a 1000 from Mahler is one of my favorites.

The Year gets slowly to its end and I regularly get already in mood for the light
little pieces which are to be heard every 1st of January in the famous New
Years Concert in Vienna.
In 2013, Franz Welser-Moest will lead the Viennese musicians again and he'll
hopefully do this with the same delicacy as he did in 2011 where I want to
share a few things from time to time.
For today I want to share this really vivid piece of Joseph Hellmesberger
called "Gypsy Dance" which I feel is such a wonderful alternation to the
of course appreciated Waltzes and Polkas.
Enjoy
