I'm investigatin' lad! I'm very strapped for cash right now so I've got a huge backlog of albums I want to purchase, but I'm hunting for an mp3 or two to give me a rough notion of the album.

It's almost certain that I'll be getting it regardless. YOU, meanwhile, should get hold of some Samla albums! Maltid and Kaka are the way to go!

Did you listen to "The Miraculous Mandarin" by Bartok? If not, then I highly recommend it. The first public rendition of it in Cologne, conducted by Jenô Szenkár, caused one of the biggest scandals in the history of music. The lord mayor of Cologne, a certain Konrad Adenauer (who later became the first chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany), forbade further performances.

How can I trust you?  You're British.

Anywhere that sells classical music...

I agree though - strong Bartok influence in KC. If you want to hear a perfect blend of the two then why not try After Crying for size? I reckon you'd dig 'em, MO.
