Today's classical playlist

Purchased today for two Euros:

Wilhelm Friedemann Bach

Chamber Music

Freiburger Barocksolisten

1975; audite records, 2 LP Set

The records had no inner sleeves anymore. Can anybody tell me how someone could do such a cruelty??? Fortunately the vinyl is still near mint. I suppose somebody needed the inner sleeves for more valuable vinyl records, more valuable music. Madonna?

:mad:

No inner sleeves! Oh, the humanity!! ;)

I don´t have a picture of the cover handy, but I´m listening to the OST from The Empire Strikes Back.

It´s the only "classical" CD that I bought before I got into classical music last October.

I bought it back in 1984 or 1985; liked it back then, LOVE it now:)

edit: If you ask me, they screwed up the track order on the CD version. The Star Wars Main Theme should be first and Finale should be last.

Great recording of a great work...and great sound. Just love it across the board.
Heifetz used his priceless 1742 ex-David Guarnerius violin on my 1959 Munch/BSO recording of this Mendelssohn concerto. It was his main performance axe even though he owned a couple of Strads but I don't know if he always used it for this concerto. It was used by Ferdinand David when he played this concerto's premiere in 1845.
I have the 180gm 1983 Red Seal LP with Heifetz using that Guarnerius. Sweet.
