    Just finished listening to Telemann: The Faithful Musicmaster; Virtuoso music for Recorder, Oboe and Harpsichord
    Theodora Schulze - oboe and recorder
    Dorothy Walters - harpsichord
    Richard Schulze - recorder

    Amphion Records - 1962

    I love listening to albums!

    I am now listening to Bachs Brandenburg Concertos (also on record)

    Original instrumentation- Collegium Aureum
    recorded in 1965.
    I wish You Peace

    J.S. Bach - Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, "Dorian" BWV 538. One of my favorite pieces by Bach, and probably my favorite performance of it.

    the Merry Widow is an opera I'll gladly NEVER listen to as long as I live ...

    I listened to "Jupiter" from The Planets, Holst (a surprisingly good recording from a German orchestra).
