Spotify music player and Boris Gilburg



Here it is. It’s big, it’s bold, it’s ugly, but it’s also functional,
the Spotify music player…




Let’s be frank, I don’t like this massive design. In my original post’s I only used Spotify HTTP links and thought that was sufficient, but eating my own dogfood I noticed that these links did not always work smoothy. So, from now on I’m going to use the Double Dutch approach and give you both the HTTP link and Spotify widget to share music.

Like this new recording of 2013 Queen Elisabeth competition winner Boris Giltburg. This pianist already had put out some fine CD’s, but the new one surpasses them al in the core (Rachmaninov, Liszt) and not-so-core (Grieg) repertoire. Giltburg dashes through:

Rachmaninov - Piano sonata no 2 in b-flat minor op 36 (1931 revision)
Grieg - Piano sonata in e minor op 7
Liszt - Piano sonata in B minor.

on the new „Orchid classics” label.

For the people who want the HTTP link, here is is:

(one hour twelve minutes dashing piano playing)


And hope you will like Giltburg's playing too! :-)
