Another thing that bothers me in general is the way in which the sound
in many recordings seems to be amplified. Even turning the volume
down doesn't in any way soften the music - it just makes it sound
indistinct and further away. The Foscarini CD e.g. sounded like heavy
metal whereas in a live performance even with the odd line up it
wouldn't sound like that. Surely it is possible to capture the sound
of a live performance more faithfully.

Who couldn't?...are there entry qualifications?
- but most of these matters are too complex to discuss intelligently
in a hurry and on a list like this.
Phooey!
And this message when I received it was a complete mess. I have
tried to tidy it up.
I do think at least we should agree whether we will reply at the end
or the beginning and everyone do the same things.
