What Classical are you listening to?

[Joe B]

I'm going to go to Milan right now to see Jonas Kaufmann at La Scala. This should bring back memories. I sang at La Scala in 1971; center stage. Of course I was on a tour, so I walked out to center stage and sang out one note so I would be able to say I did it some day in the future. And yes, today is that day!

Symphonies Nos. 3 and 4

An excellent set of his symphonies. And the filler pieces used to complete many of the discs are outstanding.
