RIPPING A CD USING EXACT AUDIO COPY (EAC)

1. Start Exact Audio Copy and load the clean and scratchless CD into you drive.
2. Pressing ALT+G will pull track and album info from the FreeDB database if this feature is set up properly.
3. If no info is found the CD is not registered in the database and you will have to type in the info manually.
4. Adjust the Drive Settings according to the model of your drive and enable the ”Create Log-file” option.
5. Adjust the Compression Settings to rip in Flac format at 768 kBit/s. Alternatively rip in the Ape fomat.
6. Rip the CD by pressing Action -> Test & Copy Image & Create CUE Sheet -> Compressed...
7. Check the log-file to see if any ripping errors or AccurateRip inaccuracies were registered.

SCANNING THE COVERS OF THE ALBUM

1. Scans of the front and back covers should be included if available as should the booklet. 300dpi is standard.

COMPRESSING THE FOLDER USING WINRAR

1. Wrap the audio files and images in a folder marked the composer and album name etc.
2. Set Compression method to ”Store” and the volume size to 200000000. Add a 3% recovery record.
3. Compress the folder using a not-too-obvious filename.

UPLOADING TO A FILEHOST AND SHARING WITH THE WORLD

Now all you need to do is to upload the rar-files to a filehost of your choice. Mega.nz is the standard and most stable option but there are many others and some services even feature upload to multiple filehosts. Finally the download links are ready to be presented on your blog.

THE MEDIEVAL ERA (600 - 1450)

At around 500 AD, western civilization began to emerge from the period known as “The Dark Ages”, the time when invading hordes of Vandals, Huns and Visigoths overran Europe and brought an end to the Roman Empire. For the next ten centuries, the newly emerging Christian Church would dominate Europe, administering justice, instigating “Holy” Crusades against the East, establishing universities, and generally dictating the destiny of music, art and literature

During this time, Pope Gregory I is generally believed to have collected and codified the music known as Gregorian Chant, which was the approved music of the Church. Much later, the University at Notre Dame in Paris saw the creation of a new kind of music called organum.

Secular music was sung all over Europe by the troubadours and trouvères of France, and it was during the Middle Ages that western culture saw the arrival of the first great name in music, Guilliame de Machaut.

THE RENAISSANCE ERA (1450 - 1600)

Generally considered to be from c.1420 to 1600, the Renaissance (which literally means “rebirth”) was a time of great cultural awakening and a flowering of the arts, letters, and sciences throughout Europe.

With the rise of humanism, sacred music began for the first time to break free of the confines of the Church, and a school of composers trained in the Netherlands mastered the art of polyphony in their settings of sacred music. One of the early masters of the Flemish style was Josquin des Prez. These polyphonic traditions reached their culmination in the unsurpassed works of Giovanni da Palestrina.

The late Renaissance also saw in England the flourishing of the English madrigal, the best known of which were composed by such masters as John Dowland, William Byrd, Thomas Morley and others.

THE BAROQUE ERA (1600 - 1750)

Named after the popular ornate architectural style of the time, the Baroque period (c.1600 to 1750) saw composers beginning to rebel against the styles that were prevalent during the High Renaissance. Many monarchs employed composers at their courts, where they were little more than servants expected to churn out music for any desired occasions. The greatest composer of the period, Johann Sebastian Bach, was such a servant. Yet the best composers of the time were able to break new musical ground, and in so doing succeeded in creating an entirely new style of music.

The instrumental concerto became a staple of the Baroque era, and found its strongest exponent in the works of the Venetian composer Antonio Vivaldi. Harpsichord music achieved new heights, due to the works of such masters as Domenico Scarlatti and others. But vocal and choral music still reigned supreme during this age, and culminated in the operas and oratorios of German-born composer George Frideric Handel.

THE CLASSICAL ERA (1750 - 1820)

From roughly 1750 to 1820, artists, architects, and musicians moved away from the heavily ornamented styles of the Baroque and the Rococo, and instead embraced a clean, uncluttered style they thought reminiscent of Classical Greece.

At this time the Austrian capital of Vienna became the musical centre of Europe, and works of the period are often referred to as being in the Viennese style. Composers came from all over Europe to train in and around Vienna, and gradually they developed and formalized the standard musical forms that were to dominate European musical culture for the next several decades. The Classical period reached its majestic culmination with the masterful symphonies, sonatas, and string quartets by the three great composers of the Viennese school: Franz Joseph Haydn, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and Ludwig van Beethoven.

During the same period, the first voice of the burgeoning Romantic musical ethic can be found in the music of Viennese composer Franz Schubert.

THE ROMANTIC ERA (1820 - 1910)

The earliest Romantic composers were all born within a few years of each other in the early years of the nineteenth century. These include the great German masters Felix Mendelssohn and Robert Schumann; the Polish poet of the piano Frédéric Chopin; the French genius Hector Berlioz; and the greatest pianistic showman in history, the Hungarian composer Franz Liszt. The field of Italian opera was dominated by Giuseppe Verdi, while German opera was virtually monopolized by Richard Wagner.

Composers like Antonin Dvorak began looking for ways in which they could express the musical soul of their homelands. Legends were therefore used as plots for operas, and folk melodies and dance rhythms were frequently used as inspiration for symphonies and instrumental music.

With the continued enhancement of instruments, plus the invention of new ones, the late Romantic composers of the second half of the nineteenth-century created richer and ever larger symphonies, ballets, and concertos. Two of the giants of this period are the German-born Johannes Brahms and the great Russian melodist Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky.

THE EARLY 20TH CENTURY ERA (1910 - 1960)

In the early part of the twentieth century music became either outwardly expressive (as in the early symphonic poems of Richard Strauss, the huge symphonies of Gustav Mahler, or the operas of Giacomo Puccini), or more introverted (as in the so-called “impressionist” music of Claude Debussy). The previous century’s tide of Nationalism found a twentieth century advocate in the Hungarian Béla Bartók.

In a time of deepening psychological awareness, the expressionistic music of Arnold Schoenberg and his disciples germinated and flourished for a time.

Twentieth-century music has seen a great coming and going of various movements, among them post-romanticism, serialism and neo-classicism in the earlier years of the century, all of which were practiced at one time or another by Russian composer Igor Stravinsky.

Many of the greatest and best-known composers of the century, including Russian composers Sergei Rachmaninov, Sergei Prokofiev, and Dmitri Shostakovich along with British composers William Walton and Benjamin Britten were those who wrote music directly descended from the approved models of the past, while investing these forms with a style and modernistic tone of their own.

THE LATE 20TH CENTURY ERA (1940 - 2000)

Composers of this era sought to free music from its rigidity, placing the performance above the composition. Similarly, many composers sought to break from traditional performance rituals by incorporating theatre and multimedia into their compositions, going beyond sound itself to achieve their artistic goals. In some cases the line is difficult to draw between genres. Composers were quick to adopt developing electronic technology. As early as the 1940s, composers such as Olivier Messiaen incorporated electronic instruments into live performance. Recording technology was used to produce art music, as well.

The musique concrète of the late 1940s and ’50s was produced by editing together natural and industrial sounds. Steve Reich created music by manipulating tape recordings of people speaking, and later went on to compose process music for traditional instruments based on such recordings. Other notable pioneers of electronic music include Edgard Varèse, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Luigi Nono, and Krzysztof Penderecki.

As more electronic technology matured, so did the music. In the 1950s aleatoric music was first championed by American composer John Cage. Early minimalist compositions of the 1960s such as those by Terry Riley, Steve Reich, and Philip Glass stemmed from aleatoric and electronic music.

THE CONTEMPORARY ERA (from 1975)

In the broadest sense, contemporary music is any music being written in the present day. In the context of classical music the term has been applied to music written in the last quarter century or so, particularly works post-1975. Minimalism was practiced heavily throughout the latter half of the century and has carried over into the 21st century, with composers like Arvo Pärt, Henryk Górecki and John Tavener working in the more popular “mystic minimalism” variant.

Recently there has been increasing stylistic variety, with far too many schools of composition to name or label. However, in general, there are three broad trends. The first is the continuation of modern avant-garde traditions, including musical experimentalism. The second are schools which sought to revitalize a tonal style based on previous common practice. The third focuses on non-functional triadic harmony, exemplified by composers working in the minimalist and related traditions.

The Mahler I ♥♥♥ ... The 3rd

'aus tiefem Traum bin ich erwacht'

The 3rd is my favourite among the first four symphonies, striking me each time with the density of its texture, the imaginative changing moods, the sense of warmth emanating from its deep slow movements.

Each of the six movements of this vast composition has a peculiar inner voice, and with its programmatic approach, this symphony draws a gleaming line through the everlasting entities of a life's experience, culminating in one of Mahler's most touching wonders - the sublime adagio (Ruhevoll-Empfunden) summing up all of the composer's inspirations into his unforgettable hymn to Love.

1. Jascha Horenstein with Norma Proctor, Ambrosian Singers, Wandsworth School Boys' Choir and London Symphony Orchestra from 1970:

2. Rafael Kubelik with Marjorie Thomas, Tolz Boys' Choir, Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra & Choir from 1967. This is the DG studio recording which, amazingly, has only been issued on CD in a complete set of the Mahler Symphonies. A set where not all the symphonies are anywhere near as successful as Symphonies No.1 and No.3:

Tonimont said...: Thank you very much Davide for your megaMahler uploads.
Please, can you look to Maazel 1985 links? Firedrive is very slow and stops and Mega has problems (doesn't begin ...), al least for me. Thakns in advance; 21 April 2014 at 08:28

Davide said...: My Mahler friends! This symphony is so dear to me, I hope you'll love these recordings as much as I did when I bought them over the years.

Thank you nz for pointing out two of your favourites, and for making them available.

Happy holidays to you, dear Pascal!

Caro Enrico, dovrò fare i salti mortali per mettere su la 2a in tempo per sabato mattina, ma ci proverò! W Mahler!!!; 21 April 2014 at 08:52
Davide said...: Tonimont, I'll try to re-up that Maazel 1985 on a third hosting site, thank you. Ciao!; 21 April 2014 at 08:54
Anonymous said...: Again a magnificent selection! Can somebody add the BYCHKOV version so extravagantly praised in Duggan's survey? Sound and performance look very promising.; 21 April 2014 at 09:41
Steph said...: Dear Davide, I remember, at the end of the 80's, a friend brought me a Russian edition of the Vaclav Neumann recording, I didn't know well Mahler's music, and when I started the beginning of the first movement, I couldn't believe what I was hearing : my jaw dropped (like in Tex Avery) "WHAT ... IS ... THIS ...!?!?". It was a precious memory.
And I believe the final adagio is the piece of Mahler that I listen to most often.
So I'm very curious about the Gilbert, Maazel (NY), and Lopez-Cobos (!), and I have some free time today ... Let's have a small coffee first !

Thanks also to nzguy - my vinyl double album of the Horenstein is worn out, and I absolutely love his version, so it's a real treat to be able to get a listenable copy.; 21 April 2014 at 12:17
Len said...: PS - I also can't download the Maazel 1985. Mega reports error, and firedrive just goes into slow motion...; 21 April 2014 at 12:18
Alberich said...: Davide, many thanks for this weekly Mahler feast. Mahler 3 is one of my favourites and I am happy to see that your share contains some recordings unknown to me.

The firedrive link for the Maazel 85 recording is working in combination with JDownloader (at least for me).; 21 April 2014 at 12:54
Davide said...: Guys, you make my day! I'm listening to the Maazel NYP now, with a good coffee, then I'll probably drive back home from Turin with the Gilbert on, not a great conductor, but the orchestra is unbeatable... even more so for Mahler.

Kolya said...: As usual, davide, I appreciate your efforts and seeing some old favorites interspersed with a few that are new to me!

If I may be so bold, here is another that has been a favorite of mine since I first heard it a dozen years ago, or so: Jean Martinon, Chicago Symphony Live from their Radio Marathon set (as usual from me, Apple Lossless, with cover embedded):

enre said...: Coraggio Davide! ti immagino alle prese con la Resurrezione ultima impresa titanica anche se poi arriverà il vero Titano che amo tanto essendo stata la prima sinfonia mahleriana che sentii, tanti anni fa ormai.
Chissà cosa ci aspetterà dopo Mahler e dopo il tuo meritato riposo...
Io spero Mendelssohn ma qualsiasi cosa sarà sempre un grande regalo!; 24 April 2014 at 14:49
Davide said...: Caro Enrico, infatti domani passo la Festa della Liberazione a mettere insieme le svariate Resurrezioni! :-)
Dopo vedremo, prima un po' di vecchi LP. Poi Weill e Poulenc, e forse qualche Brahms, Mendelssohn speriamo. Un abbraccio.; 24 April 2014 at 21:14

Cosimo said...: New addition:
http://x94mbfv1g1.1fichier.com/
Zubin Mehta and the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, Decca (1976 or 1979), superb sound. I like it very much and I thought it should be here also. In the archive you'll find 2 CD's (Symphonies 3 & 1) and back and front covers. I used Clone CD to make CD images and, sorry, I didn't bother to make FLAC or APE, you can do it yourselves if you like. Maybe Davide will do it and reupload it here, if he wants, it would be great.
I hope you will like it too, it's my favorite version of the 3rd Symphony.
And thanks for everything and especially for the Mahler cycle. What you've done here it's impressive, really.; 6 May 2014 at 14:17

Just a minor correction: whilst symphony 3 is indeed a recording made at UCLA in 1978, symphony 1 was recorded in December 1974 [not 1976] at Binyanei Ha'ooma, Jerusalem.; 7 May 2014 at 21:16

Anonymous said...: Dear Mahlerites,
having only recently discovered this amazing site I unfortunately missed this unbelievable Mahler frenzy when it was happening. Thus, my question is somehwat belated, I hope you get this comment and forgive me for posting it long time after the event itself.
I've loved Horenstein's 1970 recording of Mahler's Third (Unicorn) for years. Now, it seems that in 2009 the label HDTT (High Definition Tape Transfers) remastered Horenstein's recordings of the 1st and the 3rd symphonies from some original Unicorn master tapes. Shortly after their release though, HDTT had to withdraw them from the market because of copyright quarrels with Unicorn. Reviewers who were lucky to get the CD (or the HD audio files) were very appreciative of the results (cf. http://www.musicweb-international.com/classrev/2010/Apr10/Mahler3_Horenstein_HDCD189.htm, http://audaud.com/2010/02/mahler-symphony-no-3-norma-procter-contraltoambrosian-singerswandsworth-school-boys%E2%80%99-choir-london-sym-orch-jascha-horenstein-mahler-symphony-no-7-royal-concertgebouw-orch-a/). Those CDs or files are nowhere to be found, as far as I can tell, and I'm more than just a little curious to listen to an even better sound of Horenstein's Mahler. Is there anyone out there who owns these CDs or files??? Thank you!; 24 August 2014 at 17:36
herrfisch said...: Hello Davide, here is my rip of the record by Mehta & Los Angeles Philharmonic, which is also included in the Double Decca above. However, my record is a Japan London version, which might be better remastered. And last but not the least, the cover art here is much better than the budgeted Double Decca. Everyone, let's enjoy~!
