Old Records Are Outselling New Ones

[E-Stat]

I suppose this was RGA's main point.

And that you CAN find more expensive to produce 180g vinyl for those artists, but not just another shiny disc.

Shostakovich is a favorite of mine ... gets my vote for greatest 20th century composer. But arguably there been more great, (not to mention very fine), composers of classical music in the 20th century than any previous.

Do you like Copeland?

Check out Shostakovich' chamber music. He wrote 15 string quartets that are amongst the finest in that genre; No. 8 and 10 are likely the most famous. Other really great chamber works are Piano Quintet G Minor Op.57, Piano Trio No.2, E minor Op. 67, and Sonata for cello & piano in D min Op.40.

Thanks for the tips!
