I have not been very active these last few weeks (or as it been months?) – interrupted midway through a big comparative survey of Bach’s Viola da Gamba & Harpsichord sonatas, which I hope to resume ASAP.
Today I transfered an old review from Amazon.com, John Jensen playing music of Paul Reale, Bloch (Piano Sonata), Ruggles (Evocations) and Larry Lipkis on Music & Arts. Not very memorable – to the point, in fact, that I had put the record on sale a while ago, and thought I should transfer the review here before letting it go. There’s a story as to why I listened again – but it is not interesting enough for me to tell it. Anyway, now I’m thinking I might keep the CD. The piece of Lipkis is pretty good, and while I still have doubts about the compositions of Reale, I’m now inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt…
