| Clarinet Music on vinyl or CDs Carol, thanks again. You know, Wright's playing on Schubert's Shepherd on the Rock is great but I was also impressed with Benita Valente. She has a crystal clear soprano and the blend of her voice with the sound of clarinet is something really spe... | |
| Clarinet Music on vinyl or CDs Shadorne, I tried to look for this cd and the only way for me to hear it is to buy it. I kind of suspected that this would be more of a recording statement than anything. That's the reason why I didn't go crazy trying to find it.Thanks for the rec... | |

| LO MCs carts with RM-9/Shindo pre? Paul, unless I am missing something here, the Blackbird IS a moving coil cartridge. Are we talking about the same Blackbird? Sumiko Blackbird, right? You are saying you never heard any MC cartridge....Beragamo, the Denon 103 may have tough time ma... | |
| I envy what you know, not what you have Got some very good recommendations in cables, room acoustics and in music recordings/performance specific recommendations. Just recently I've received great help with understanding, setting up and getting the most out of my first analog set up. Th... | |

| Clarinet Music on vinyl or CDs Opalchip, haven't heard that disc. I had actually no idea Michaelson played clarinet. I have the K581 with Stoltzman. I really like the K581 Quintet, it's a beautiful piece along with the K622 Concerto on the same cd, and I liked Stoltzman's perfo... | |

| Clarinet Music on vinyl or CDs Rushton, you're right, the sound quality is very good, despite that this disc was recorded in the beginning of the 80s. I guess the original was still an analog tape...may be.Rushton, if you don't already have any Sabine Meyer recordings, I highly... |
