Certainly one of the greatest progressive rock albums of all-time and personal favorite of mine. Good choice.

Messiaen is one of those composers I never could get my head around. I've got several recordings of his music including several box sets. I find his earlier works to be more to my liking than his later works. His early works remind me Koechlin a bit with their use of ondes martenot. Are you familiar with Koechlin's music?

Nope, can't say I am. I only have a few Messiaen recordings so far...this, Turangalila Symphonie (my fave of his works so far) and La Transfiguration...
I'm always on the lookout for more classical, though. Any recommendations of where to start with Koechlin? |

Ah yes, Turangalila Symphonie. I've got several performances of that work (Chailly, Cambreling, Ozawa, Chung). Koechlin recommendations? Sure, try The Jungle Book conducted by David Zinman with the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra on RCA. This recording is out-of-print, but can be tracked down on the used market for good prices. I think Koechlin's The Jungle Book is one of the most underrated works of the 20th Century. Nobody ever mentions it or talks about it. Let me know if you get a copy. I'm anxious to hear your thoughts about it. Just to be safe, you can always listen some of it on YouTube of course, but I think you'll enjoy it. Edited by Mirror Image - July 19 2012 at 00:25 |

You're quite welcome. I've listened to classical music and nothing but for the last three years, so I'm just now returning to progressive rock. I learned A LOT during those three years. Lots and lots of reading, research, and, of course, listening.

I tend to go through phases of nothing but jazz, nothing but classical, nothing but rock/prog, then just a big jumbled mess of all of the above. The last one there is my favorite, I think, though each of the individual focused periods are good times as well.
