Brian in UK:

Good diet but remember to stay hydrated.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:35pm
David D:

Great question, Brian - they are actually renaturalized surface mining sites. It used to be a big coal area and entire villages were razed to make way for it, some of which are now fantastic lakes with beaches.
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:39pm
Brian in UK:

I was guessing mining but the number of trees confused me. Open cast I presume. Bit like in North Wales after the slate was removed. Trouble was that you had to shift thirty tons to get one ton. Very wasteful. But without, no roofs. Very popular with divers.

Latvia. Home of the Hits.

I want to live on Cyprus, period. I've never been there, but if I ever go, it'll be with a one-way ticket.
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:43pm
Brian in UK:

Cyprus is my island. You know who sang that.
  4:46pm
Dean:

I *knew* who sang that back in the day, but never connected my attraction to the place (via Christopher Hitchens, imagine that) with him. Will have to listen again. I also need to reread Lawrence Durrell's Bitter Lemons.
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:54pm
Brian in UK:

Dean it is still split in two. Turkish north, Greek south.

Imagine, Christopher Hitchens being a Phil Ochs fan.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:55pm
David D:

Yes, I suppose those trees weren't there 20 years ago, quite an achievement in fact. The area has changed a lot and is still in development, like the brand new bike path I took that photo from.

Stanislav, can you come over tomorrow to fix my plumbing? It's on the way to the peak of normal.
  5:01pm
Dean:

Split it is, Brian in UK, with half (or more like 2/3 Greek?) in the EU as of 2004, I believe.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:03pm
David D:

Yes, Cypriot coins turn up in our change here from time to time.
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:06pm
Brian in UK:

I believe it was Greek until the Turks invited themselves to the resort.
  5:07pm
Dean:

David D @4:55: Is the path brand new, or is it only for brand new bikes?
  5:09pm
Dean:

I believe it was Kissinger who extended the invitation.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:09pm
David D:

Dean, don't worry, it connects with the pennyfarthing paths in several places.

Sorry Brian. Got a job in Cyprus. I'm not hanging around here any more.

David, been hearing Kodaly fairly often on FMU lately and enjoying tremendously.

The sound quality of this recording is very like an evening at the Hollywood Bowl. :)

This puts me in mind...in ear and eye, sort of?...of soundtrack music for a 50's - 60s ancient/biblical history epic.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:06pm
David D:

I didn't realize I was part of a trend! I've been on a Kodály kick lately, myself. Glad the recording is coming through well...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:06pm
David D:

@still b/p: Definitely those strains of mystery and majesty.
  6:07pm
Dean:

Curiously, Jim Svejda panned this very recording in Fanfare a couple years ago, and there doesn't appear to be much competition. I would love to hear Orpheus Chamber Orchestra's take on it, which received improved remarks in the magazine.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:09pm
David D:

Interesting, I'll have to see what his critique was about.
  6:09pm
Dean:

I love Fanfare, every issue an education. But in the latest issue two reviews of a recent recording of Mussourgsky's Pictures (orch. Ravel) are completely at odds. One reviewer calls it a badly recorded waste of time and money. The other beams, not least about the sound!
  6:12pm
Dean:

Svejda complains about the orchestra's performances and the recorded sound. He enters one line specifically about Summer Evening: "Most disappointing is Summer Evening, that miraculously atmospheric tone poem which here lacks any semblance of atmosphere, charm, or finesse." To each his own. As a former LA commuter I got to know Svejda's programming very well, and I believe he is a regional treasure. But our tastes diverged wildly in many cases. He despises Telemann, for instance, while I adore him. And he loved to make fun of (then still alive) Nickolaus Harnoncourt's conducting. If for no other reason, NH deserves props for giving us Monteverdi's operas early on.
Avatar 6:15pm
geezerette:

Well, as with everything, subjectivity is a factor. I'm finding this cool and calming at the moment, and lyrical. I do really like the sound quality.
  6:18pm
Dean:

Kodaly revised Summer Evening in 1930 at the prompting of Toscanini.

David D:

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:26pm
David D:

Was it Toscanini? I wasn't sure about whether the revision was a major one.
  6:27pm
Dean:

From a 1984 review of an assortment of Kodaly's works: "The other orchestral work, Summer Evening, was Kodály's first non-student orchestral composition. Originally written in 1906, it was extensively revised 23 years later at the behest of Arturo Toscanini, who was sufficiently impressed by it to suggest that Kodály try his hand at a symphony."
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:30pm
David D:

Thanks, it would be interesting to hear the older version as well. Must be available somewhere...
  6:38pm
Dean:

What's interesting is the differences in performance times of (presumably) the revised version by, e.g., Dorati (16 mins., 45 secs.) versus Kodály (around 1960, 21:05). Another reviewer points to this as his favorite recording of Summer Evening: https://www.discogs.com/Zolt%C3%A1n-Kod%C3%A1ly-Hungarian-Radio-Symphony-Orchestra-Conducted-By-%C3%81d%C3%A1m-Fischer-H%C3%A1ry-J%C3%A1nos-Suite-Su/release/3210199 (19:38). Can't find references to a recording of the 1906 version.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:39pm
David D:

Thanks, Dean - looks very much like post-show reading...
  6:39pm
Dean:

See the notes at that Discogs link above for more about the Toscanini connection.
  6:42pm
Dean:

Turns out it was likely not "extensively revised." Fascinating stuff.
