Puccini: Turandot - Mehta | John Broggio - July 5, 2026

This is the best I've heard this recording on a hi-res medium but some distortion of the sound at climaxes remains, unlike with the Britten War Requiem, which is a terrible ...

Les McCann & Eddie Harris: Swiss Movement | Downunderman - June 28, 2026

No grumbles from me here for a live performance from 1969 AND first time to SACD. Probably worth it for their cover of 'Compared To What' alone. I have no idea if their cover ...

Poulenc - Pascal Rogé, Elena Font, Lidy Blijdorp

Stereo (65 minutes)

Classical - Chamber

Pascal Rogé (piano)
Lidy Blijdorp (cello)
Elena Font (piano)

Pascal Rogé has over several decades, become the greatest interpreter of the French piano repertoire. His recordings of Satie and Debussy are benchmark performances, still unrivalled in the catalogue.

On this album he turns to Poulenc and is joined by cellist Lidy Blijdorp in the cello sonata, and pianist Elena Font in the sonatas for two pianos, and for four hands. Font plays the solo works included in this charming album of superbly crafted, elegant and sometimes witty music by this 20th century French master.
