What a pleasure to read about an ECM production - the covers are always stunning too. I don't know it, but it really seems like an album for me; I'll listen to the samples anyway to get an idea. Speaking of Officium, the Hilliard Ensemble is playing in my city tonight :)) bien

Record I’ve never heard, I’ll hardly listen to it, I’m as always distant from your interesting and well-curated suggestions, as usual.

Francesco Guccini Fra la via Emilia e il West

Indeed, this concert is an excellent summary of Guccini's music, and I fully agree that it is an album suitable for approaching his work. Mentioning "Venezia" was essential, and citing it in such a widely shared way is commendable. However, there’s another Guccini that I really like—the storyteller and the comedian who interacts with the audience. Here, there’s only a hint of that; I think of the discussion on the meaning of "border line." For this Guccini, the album to listen to is certainly "opera buffa," which may have a "minor" role in his discography, yet I still find it a very beautiful and entertaining work. Does anyone remember the "talking about sex"? Bye.

This page is beautiful, you've practically said it all. Perhaps the best of Guccini's "recent works." I'll just add one thing about Lolli: indeed, it's hard to laugh with his music, but in concert he manages to convey a strange irony. I expected him to be more somber, but he's very conversational with the audience. When they asked him to do "aspettando godot," he would repeat something like: "Godot? I'm sorry, he missed his flight and isn't here today, he's still with Michel."

Johann Sebastian Bach - Mischa Maisky Suites Per Violoncello 1-6

Zigghio, after the works you mentioned, it's impossible that you don't have this record. You absolutely have to have it. And I also understand well the idea you present of the Stendhal syndrome in relation to Bach; it’s a beautiful image. It's also good to remember that Bach's music was written centuries ago, but let's remember that it still exists today, it’s alive, and it testifies in space alongside other sounds and images to the very essence of humanity thanks to the Voyager project. It came to mind when you spoke about music "from another planet." That said, I don't know what the others will do, but right now I’m listening to a record by Glenn Gould, with good peace to all the disturbed spherical forms in this context, both the full and the painfully empty ones. P.S. Frantz, what were you saying about certain viruses?

A beautiful tale odradek, that you read in one breath. A masterpiece of music. A wonderful interpreter. This version of the cello suites is truly stunning; I also have the version by maestro Rostropovich (Sony) and that "inspired by Bach" by Yo Yo Ma, also from Sony. They are all beautiful, and yesterday - it must be another coincidence - I heard the performance of Suite No. 1 live at a dance performance, spine-tingling. Let’s hope this tale of yours brings other untrained ears closer to these sounds. I somewhat envy those who haven’t yet listened to any of this; I have the sweetest memory of the pleasure of discovery. Definitely a recommended review. Bye :)
