Discussion: Prokofiev: Symphony No. 3, Scythian Suite, Autumn - Alsop
June 20, 2015
As a working musician in the NYC area (where she was based for many years before her career took off), the opinion expressed by the Baltimore Symphony musician is agreed upon by everyone that I have talked to. The concerts and recordings that I have heard with her conducting have never risen above the routine. ... more
Pentatone announces DGG re-releases

November 22, 2014
You say that 1978 is late for quad mixes, yet the Philips quad mixes in Boston that Pentatone released over the last few years extended to 1980. Let's hope that there are quad mixes of quite a few of their recordings through the 70's. ... more
