| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @audio-b-dog , I am mystified! I used your search criteria and the only hit (first hit) that has “Maria Callas” in the title, this one accompanied by a pic (painting?) of Callas is in fact, 5:18 mins long. However, the clip is not of Callas. ... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Hey @stuartk , we did change the subject. Jump in! 😊 Cousin Brucie!! Boy, that takes me back. | |
| Vinyl Warm Up Time I agree with @lewm on all counts. I might even increase the length of time to one solid hour to reach optimum and really “sing”. All tube, btw. | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @audio-b-dog , re Trane/Pharoah: **** Am I missing something? **** No disrespect intended, but the answer is: obviously! A while back there was an ongoing debate on the JFA thread between one of the then most prolific contributors and I about w... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Curious, could someone else try those links and report what they get? Thanks! | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Very strange. With either link I get the Latvian National Opera and the soprano is Dinara Alieva. Go figure! | |

| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Love Haydn oratorios including “The Creation”. I recently listened to a favorite, “Il Ritorno di Tobias”. I usually prefer to leave audiophilic stuff out of music discussions, but as an aside, if forced to choose, my Dorati/Royal Phil double LP ... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Still not Callas. 🤔 | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Would lobe to hear Callas singing this, but the link takes me somewhere else. Please post again. In the meantime: https://youtu.be/hf9FbUF2S38?si=F_-iWX_IIqezcz1R | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Beautiful rendition by Te Kanawa of this beautiful Puccini aria. Thanks! It is common for artists (not just singers) to show some degree, however small, of their ethnicity when performing, or creating.. This is akin to a trace of accent of one’s... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @pjw81563 , no need to apologize. First, you have a great attitude. I would say the perfect attitude. You say, “I don’t get it” and are not, as many are, too quick to dismiss it as bs or just noise. You leave room for getting it. Difficult mus... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Yes, good to see you back, PJW. Hope all is well and thanks for your comments. You are correct about Coltrane’s solo on “The Way You Look Tonight”, Trane plays after Mobley @5:52. Solo orders: “Ball Bearing”: 10:26 - Coltrane, 11:42 - Morgan,... |
