Notes_Norton 1,572 Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) Today is the 250th Anniversary of Beethoven's baptism. There is no record of his birth, but it was probably on the 16th according to the custom of the day. So to celebrate, my two favorites Beethoven Symphonies #4 and #7. Both conducted by George Szell. I know most people seem to like #5 and #9 the best. I think #5 has a great first movement and then pedestrian and #9 is IMO pretty harmonically dull. Great in their day as they broke ice, but I think 4 & 7 are the ones that stood up to the test of time. Edited December 18, 2020 by Notes_Norton 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Notes_Norton 1,572 Posted December 20, 2020 The music is dated, the video is definitely low-rez, bit it's amazing how many instruments these gals played. Doubling? Tripling? Quadrupling? etc. Band Beautiful - The Ingenues 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wibbles 2,645 Posted December 23, 2020 (edited) Massive Attack + Liz Fraser + Mad Professor = Not too shabby Somewhere along the line I acquired a copy of the multitracks of the original version. I always meant to have a play around with them but I'm not sure the vocal would fit an Old Skool Acid wobbler.

Notes_Norton 1,572 Posted December 24, 2020 While on the subject of Lambert, Hendricks and Ross: Jon Hendricks could spit out fast lyrics and still make them understandable better than anyone else I know of. Originally by Claude Cloud and His Thunderclaps, Jon added the words to the melody and ad-libs. Cloudbusrst - Lambert, Hendricks, & Ross Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
