Marchas Procesionales - ROS Sevilla, Vjkoslav Sutej (1995)
Today is a holiday in Spain. We celebrate 40 years of the Spanish Constitution, the most successful of the eight we have had, since that first of the Cortes de Cádiz of 1812.
What better to celebrate than listening to genuinely Spanish cult music. Now, a gift from my Sevillian friend Julio Belda.

Brilliant work!
I had not listened to it for years, before my gadgets and Windows optimization. The change in sound is brutal. Maybe we have a modern Paganini with this Lebanese-born and Spanish violinist of Armenian descent.

Trying to find some errors made while soldering my Weird Sound Generator. Hooking of metalparts to GND help a lot, but one channel is missing.😡
OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE. El sombrero de tres picos is spectacular.
My brain has secreted too much adrenaline today, so I make a tea (Earl Gray, too late to take a coffee) and finish with an incredible end of party, the audiophile crown jewel.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Jewel of the crown. You NEED a VERY good sound system and A LOT OF WATTS or speakers with very high sensitivity (very high DR). Very careful if you use headphones!!!!!!!!!!!!

Test passed. I have been careful and I keep the eardrums. The police have not shown up.

Note: the modern AV, cheap or expensive, do not have this beautiful graph. They sound very good with films but music... It was the cheap model but it has speakers Pre Out like the expensives.
This graph shows that the SR4500's left channel, from CD input to speaker output with two channels driving 8-ohm loads, reaches 0.1% distortion at 100.4 watts and 1% distortion at 114.6 watts.
Into 4 ohms, the amplifier reaches 0.1% distortion at 128.2 watts and 1% distortion at 158.8 watts...

Back in the 1960's my father was a member of The World Record Club and one offering was an LP by The Modern Jazz Quartet. This particular album was titled "Collaborations" and had Laurindo Almeida as a guest soloist. I recently bought the CD. Just wonderful. Their version of the slow movement from the Rodrigo guitar concerto is arguably the best recorded........likewise the Bach.
After the party, the hangover
Ataúlfo Argenta, the mythical director, one of the best off all times. Pity of the cover photo for tourists. Only the bull and a bullfighter are missing, but the recording is VERY GOOD.

Another recording that gets a lot of 'airplay' is the slightly unusual Boult edition of the Messiah (Ward, McKellar, Bumbry and Sutherland). It has relatively sparse instrumentation and is played at a VERY slow tempo. This was in marked contrast to the very large productions and fast tempo then current. (Back in the '70's I was playing the LP version and the girl friend of my housemate with a fairly wide experience of classical music asked if the turntable was faulty!!) Like the MJQ my boxed set was World Record Club . It what I grew up with and love and now the more conventional productions all sound like the conductor is on speed.......

To me, the best Spanish tenor is Plácido Domingo. Second the master, Alfredo Kraus (perfect technique, maybe the best technique but cold, without emotion) and third Jaume Aragall. And yes, I do not like Josep Carreras, very inferior.
Problem with Jaume Aragall: very few recordings!
The italians Mario del Monaco y Franco Corelli (technically the worst but the one that more emotion and credibility transmits) are very good too.
