Uh-oh...
Edited to add: wait, what?! Grossie is the only Chicagoan on this board I've met personally, I think. This cannot be good.

The good doctor was kind enough to loan us a box of stems for our Italian wine dinner. (blocks from grossie's home)
KiKi's had proper stemware for our Bordeaux and Spanish wine dinner.
I will send you a message on FB, soon.
So question for my fellow forumites,
I love Karajan for beethoven as I feel he focuses on the best parts and speeds through some of the slower movements (gross simplification)
but mozart was always intricate and complex but I must admit my lack of knowledge with mozart composers.
Who do you guys recommend?

Leonard Bernstein for the 40th, the soundtrack to Elvira Madigan for piano concertos. I don't listen to much Mozart beyond the 40th and his concertos...
Also, get Carlos Kleiber's Beethoven's 5th and 7th.

i like Carlos interpretation of the 7th.
his 5th though, the one performance I 've heard is too "fluid" and very shrilly (i've got a pair of klipsch rb-61 speakers). That finale is suppose to come at you and surprise you. He just goes loud all the way through that you're in essence not "shocked" that the finale is coming. It finishes and you're left wondering, oh it just ended.
181 pages and no love for Bill Frisell? "Gone, Just Like a Train" for his first mention.
The B-minor Mass.

the way to Mozart is through the operas. Don G is my favorite but perhaps Figaro is easier. Figaro is the first opera I saw and was immediately hooked. The first recording of Figaro I purchased was Marriner's on Phillips.
It's a good place to start also.
Lucia
Brahm's clarinet quintet
I know this is cheesy, but... I've been listening to selections from the tenth anniversary of Les Miserables for the past 20+ minutes.

Tim Hardin, Eric Andersen (only "Thirsty Boots"), Phil Ochs.
In high school in the late '90s I was able to bring my guitar to school and tell the girls I had written some of these songs. They were quite impressed.
