Benedictus
Posted in Classical on Jul 5th, 2008 No Comments »
In my other Old Fogey Blog, I have started a ‘Times Stands Still” series where I write about music that, for me, make time stand still. My latest post is here. The music is the Praeludium and Benedictus from Beethoven’s ‘Missa Solemnis’. The violin soloist is Michel Swalbé, in the 1966 recording by Herbert Von Karajan. The soloists are wonderful - Gundula Janovitz, Christa Ludwig, Fritz Wunderlich and Walter Berry. It’s from my old, worn vinyl LP.
