Happy 25th, S-OB; Sinfonia in D major; Air on a G… by Wendy Carlos
CHECK SHELVES
I first got this back in the days of vinyl. I played it and played it and loved it. I wore out one track: Minuet in G Major because I was supposed to play it for a recital and was struggling. I never achieved the speed or precision of this recording, but it helped me with understanding the tempo.

Quite different than its namesake, less of a curiosity and I guess more like music.
Really nice, unique performances of some of my favorite classical music. Had to special order this.
