  • Berl Senofsky in Concert – a legend returns

    Feb 27th, 2017 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Berl Senofksy, Bridge Records, CD Review, historic recording, Marie Louise B astyns

    Berl Senofsky, though an influential and respected artist, didn’t record a lot. So his reputation rests mainly on accounts of those who heard him in performance or studied with him.

While this music by Kurt Weill and Berthold Brecht has received many performances, there has been a subtle shift in interpretation over time. These recordings document how these songs […]

  • Furtwangler Symphony 2

    Furtwangler’s 2nd gets sympathetic treatment

    Dec 15th, 2010 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, BR-Klassic, CD Review, Euguen Jochum, historic recording, orchestral, Wilhelm Furtwangler

    Some music is so durably constructed that it can withstand the poorest performance. If a badly-lead ensemble provided your first exposure to Beethoven’s 5th Symphony, I think you’d still be able to determine that the failings were with the musicians and not the score. But some music requires a little extra love to make it […]
