Ummm difficult.... They are all excellent musicians For his cheerful character, that of Yo Yo Ma. Casals, Rostropovich, Fournier (recorded in Basle Cathedral), Schiff, Bylsma and the Maisky´s first record, they all seem perfect to me in terms of virtuosity, although I wouldn't know which one to choose... perhaps Bylsma's version. On a technical level, I admit that I feel more attracted to "modern" recordings, so the Casals and Fournier recordings are the ones I listen to the least. Gavriel Lipkind and Queyras are perfect for me and on a technical level their recordings are simply spectacular (Queyras' version is recorded at the Eglise Saint-Cyriak and I think I remember that the engineer used DT990s). Both are very careful recordings and their presentation is extraordinary (it is worth the money it costs) Wispelwey I have always thought that it is the most correct "temporarily" since it uses a Baroque cello with "gut strings" (cuerdas de tripa, I don't know if the expression is correct) and I like to think that, if Bach ever got to hear his pieces, it would be with one of these instruments (perhaps I'm wrong). But the one I like the most and my first choice is Maisky's second recording. He is energetic and makes me feel very happy. It is very different from all... comparing his two recordings I feel like he evolved from an instrument virtuoso to a musician. I really like when something is recorded in cathedrals or churches... these places provide spectacular acoustics. Like allways, excuse my poor english and be soooo boring 😞

This weekend a typhoon has "visited" us... so it has given me time for review my collection of Bach cello suites.

Happy birthday!

Really I don't think you'll notice much difference. Some of my colleagues bought the 1030 two years ago and it has practically the same functions. In fact, for example it is physically identical (I have put a cover and a 1030 tempered glass and it fits perfectly) This weekend we were able to compare them I can say you that "nothing new under the sun". We were also able to compare the 1040 solar and EMO for the moment until the screen/solar panel technology evolves, it is not worth investing the extra €160 vs. 1040 edge

Happy Birthday

After 10 years of servitude my Garmin Edge 810 has perished... luckily I didn't buy a new pc so my "candy budget" was intact and yesterday I bought an Edge 1040. It's huge and although the 810 had quite a few sections and metrics, this junk surpasses it. I don't really need that much but one of our patrons made us a good offers this year so... One question, Will I be able to see the Stanley Cup with this? 😁
