A seasonal Offering; I hear alot of hope in this version!
Stockholm, Sweden
2nd September 2009 WOP Concert, part of the Baltic Festival
World Orchestra For Peace
Valery Gergiev, conductor
This concert was given at the invitation of Sveriges Radio/ Berwaldhallen as a part of the 2009 Baltic Sea Festival - marking the 70th anniversary of the start of World War 2 in the Baltic in 1939 and 200th anniversary of the peace treaty between Sweden and Finland.
Programme for this concert:
Track 1.
Krzysztof Penderecki
'Prelude for Peace'(WOP commission, Swedish premiere)
Tracks 2-5.
Gustav Mahler
Symphony No. 5 in C# minor
Penderecki's Prelude For Peace is short, in five minutes it achieves a broad swath of wonder to bask in and press 'repeat' immediately after.
The Mahler is a clean, positive-sounding reading that satisfies greatly. As usual with the Fifth, there are all these gorgeous musical structures spread to the skies only to be destroyed, and rebuilt, and again, the process moves forward thusly. Made up of a pick of crack top flight musicians, the World Orchestra For Peace shows its mettle navigating the big crashes without any undue muddiness of texture. It fits wonderfully for all us knit-browed 'serious music' junkies heading into a new decade!

A mí y a un amigo, nos da error de descompresión. Sólo se descomprimen bien los dos primeros movimientos de la Quinta.
Feliz Navidad.
Amigos, lo he probado y me sale bien por aca.. en mac intenen usando el progama grateche y buenisimo "the unarchiver"??
Lamento insistir.
Lo volví a bajar en Windows y en Linux, usando distintos descompresores, y me sigue dando errores de CRC.
Sólo se salvan los movimientos 1 y 2 de Mahler.
¿Alguien más intentó bajarlos sin éxito?
Saludos
I've downloaded it, and three of the five files are corrupt. Could you check and post uncorrupted files?
Disculpen por la demora, I think I may have it fixed. I cannot tell these are corrupt, since each time I've downloaded and unzipped them- most recently this morning- everything goes well without a hitch. Now, maybe the filenames are too long for some systems or software? Could be just plain cranky; I use an old Mac G4 Powerbook.
In any case, I just renamed the longish files to shorter ids, rezipped, reupped and checked. Have at them! Maybe now it's better?

Te confirmo que ahora sí pude descargar y descomprimir sin problemas el archivo. Gracias.
