I have Melichar's 5th Brandenburg Concerto recording (1st movement only) from the same Polydor set in a Deutsche Grammophon 100th jubilee collection in fantastic transfer done by Gregor Zilinsky (with a wonderful solo harpsichord playing by by the well-known pianist Franz Rupp!).<br />Now I'm trying to find the entire Polydor set with Melichar in transfers of comparable quality.аффторhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13830444368690840114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631827761986497493.post-74824566647181334162011-02-02T04:59:34.370-05:002011-02-02T04:59:34.370-05:00Brilliant, thanks.

I'm surprised CHARM lets us listen to and download their files. I spent the first five days of the New Year downloading everything I could think of that I might want, in case they change their mind!Bryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00501152469280142504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631827761986497493.post-75489704066963928372011-02-01T06:29:52.144-05:002011-02-01T06:29:52.144-05:00Dear Bryan, Thanks so much for your excellent and ...Dear Bryan, Thanks so much for your excellent and clear transfer (how good that Polyfar system was!) and for the extra info. The BL has also transferred this set (the whole Melichar cycle in fact) but only, of course, for us Britishers: it gives the mtx data as 749/750½ be VIII, 752½/751 ge VIII (from the Decca-Polydor issue on LY 6099-6100) but I've not checked that myself - is that what you have?Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01447090393898006955noreply@blogger.com
