Here's a free download of the "Aluminum" CDQ title track of Arturo Delmoni's "Songs My Mother Taught Me."
https://www.dropbox.com/s/8b6i99d129k99wy/15 Songs My Mother Taught Me.wav?dl=0
That piece is Fritz Kreisler's transcription for violin of Dvorak's tear-jerking "Gypsy Song," wherein a young Roma mother cries while singing to her own baby... the songs her mother had taught her.
I think that one listen should indicate why, 36 years after the first LP release, people are still talking about it.
Arturo sounds great on my early 20th-c. German Amati copy... but on a 1721 Stradivari, few are on his level.
all my best,
john
PS: PLMK if there are any download problems.

john;
the download worked fine for me.
this was a beautiful sounding recording.
now, i wish the entire disc was not so scarce or expen$ive; I'd like to hear the entire disc!
oh well, yet another recording to add to my list of things to look for ...
thanks for sharing!

I'm John Marks, from JMR/John Marks Records. I own the rights in the JMR 1993 digital iteration of the analog master tapes. Furthermore, the work performed is PD everywhere, including the US. My digital transfer from 1993 is still in rights, I am not waiving that. I am just temporarily being generous to my audio friends. Dvorak and Kreisler are both long dead, and Kreisler's arrangement, which I believe was first published in Europe in 1904, was published in America before the present cut-off date for copyrights. I licensed the 1993 Bob Ludwig digital transfer to IMPEX, but I do not own the IP in their Crystal Disc iteration. Which is why I am not putting up a rip of the IMPEX Crystal Disc.
ciao,
