Hi Nick. thanks very much for this. I've been wanting to hear it for years. I knew it was short but not 3 minutes 28 seconds. There's something very cool about it being that long. I'm going to listen to it again.
There’s a full CD's worth of material by this same band on Cadence 1176 called “Wellsprings Suite” recorded live in Prague on 25 Nov 2001, for anyone who happens not to know of it already.
lovely piece! thanks much, Nick!
Igor
another one that needs to be save...
THX!...
I'm revisiting all my Quintet Moderne recordings, but don't seem to have this one - would it be possible for it to be re-upped?
I'm also finding Sestetto Internazionale to be almost as extraordinary as Quintet Moderne. Hopefully we will be able to see these musicians in concert as a normal part of life again soon.
HI Tantris - please mail me via my blogger profile.
