well this just keeps happening - spent years trying to find a lovely song by Kodály from our childhood and once again the reason why we couldn't find it is because it turns out it's by Bartók - anyway listen to this mmmmm

we sang an english version, but the original hungarian is saying something like:

only tell me, my rose, by which road you leave me - and that road I'll plough with a [golden?] ploughshare - and I'll sow it with pearls and harrow it with my heavy tears

(any hungarians want to correct this? it's a very rough attempt)

Il Mese Classico con Roberto Roganti: Bartók Béla

[capn-o-my-soul]

went to the record store again! here's today's haul:

Top Left: Bela Bartok Concerto for Orchestra, Music for Strings Percussion and Celesta, and Hungarian Sketches recorded by Fritz Reiner and the Chicago Symphony

Top Right: Jean Sibelius The Wood Nymph (in two versions), A Lonely Ski Trail, and Swanwhite recorded by Osmo Vänskä and the Lahti Symphony Orchestra

Bottom Left: Stravinsky Petroushka, Scherzo a la Russe, and Suite from The Firebird recoreded by Paavo Järvi and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra

Bottom Right: Walter Piston Suite from The Incredible Flutist, Suite for Orchestra, Fantasy for English Horn, Harp, and Orchestra, Concerto for String Quartet, Wind Instruments, and Percussion recorded by Gerard Schwarz and the Seattle Symphony Orchestra

so like since i am a trumpet player i was pretty much obligated to get the bartok disc because it features the legendary trailblazing orchestral trumpet player adolph "bud" herseth on principal trumpet for some of the most difficult yet thrilling excerpts you will ever hear (in fact all the brass sections are very good (and perhaps more importantly very loud) in this recording)

they had a complete edition of shostakovich string quartets that i was seriously considering getting however it was like $40 and while that is a fair price it was still too much money for me. they also had a complete roussell edition that was very tempted but that was $46. i was considering getting a recording of wozzeck but i didn't recognize any of the performers and didn't want to risk it being a not-so-great performance

i listened to the stravinsky on the drive home (it was fabulousss) but unfortunately it has become stuck in the built in cd player in the car so idk if i'll ever see it again but whatevs 🤷
