In Reply to: there are some real good compilations on LP posted by docw on April 24, 2007 at 07:20:13:
I have a couple of wedding cd's...that's where I got the Pachelbel Canon (Kanon?) and a few others...Trumpet Voluntary (I play the trumpet myself, is why this stood out)I just listened to two versions of Gorecki Symphony No. 3 "Symphony of Sorrowful Songs" It is almost an hour long...but I drank in every minute of it...Now I have to debate on which version to get (It was a friend's music)-Dawn Upshaw singing soprano, London Sinfonietta with David Zinman conducting, or the Szymanowski Philharmonic Orchestra version, Cracow (I think Cracow would be the conductor, but I am not sure)
Either way that was definitely a good suggestion/find.
Makes it even better knowing it was written in memory of the Holocaust...
