Re: [linux-audio-user] recommended music, was [OT] Steely Dan

Kronos Quartet's recording of his 1st and 2nd quartets is great: http://www.kronosquartet.org/records/indiv.php?id=146 as is everything they have ever done, in my experience. I was first exposed to them in 5th grade by a nun who happened to know Joan Jeanrenaud. When I was in high school they were performing nearby and my band director's wife heard they were looking for a school to visit. They played in our band room and talked to us for close to 2 hours. A few years ago I got to hear them perform Steve Reich's Triple Concerto ... I get shivers just thinking about that. Any way ... I like this disk: Arvo Part, Henryk Gorecki, Galina Ustvolskaya: Solo Piano Works David Arden http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000001SIC/102-5874444-399133 some other Gorecki disks I own and love ... These are available on one disk: Miserere Op44; Amen Op35 And these on another: Kleines Requiem für Eine Polka (Little Requiem for a Polka), Op. 66 (1993) Concerto for Harpsichord & String Orchestra, Op. 40 (1980) Good Night, Op. 63 (1990)
