I’ve been listening to two recordings Jean Hubeau and Massimiliano Damerini.

At the level of sound Hubeau is absolutely fine, and the interpretation feels unforced and wide awake. This is a gorgeous recording of the Barcarolles, without having the feeling of being as boldly imaginative as Damerini’s, which I listened to this morning. Hubeau feels slightly safe. Damerini’s feels like someone with something urgent and exciting to say about the music, Damerini was spoilt by the hard sound - but, now I’m listing to it again on a more forgiving system, Spendors with Conrad Johnson solid state and not Quad ESL 63s and Krell, the sound is less of a problem. Reviewers take note - you need more than one hifi (but you knew that!) It really isn’t enough to have just one very good revealing monitor system if you want to be sure of enjoying your recordings.

Damerini for me then!

Is this good music? I think so.

Imagine how good it would sound on an AM radio.

Possibly better than on the expensive and unforgiving monitors!

Quad ESLs and Krells are definitely not a good marriage.
May I suggest Sound Labs and two pairs of new EARs --
if one can afford them. Preferably bridged 519s.
