Lol, sorry guys but, on this one, the Wikipedia link will point on the French Wikipedia, the English one is ridiculously short for speaking about such an important composer as Luigi Boccherini , even the Italian Wikipedia topic should be more complete than it is.
So, for those who will want it, you can train your French skills. Also, for those who will want it, you can listen to this piece.
This is the quintet No. 2 G.414, extract from the Opus 57, a serie of quintets that Luigi Boccherini "dedicated to the French nation" in 1799.
This No. 2 is my favourite.
About the interpretation, well, it's not bad but, if you like this style and want to pick a really good version, just grab this one here by the Quatuor Mosaïques and Patrick Cohen, so much more fresh, more inventive, more ... Well, just better, from far ...
A long time ago, one spoke, about this record, as a "miraculous disk" ... In any case, an interpretation which doubtless should please to Boccherini, he who said : " I cannot judge if i made something good, but i know well that music is made to speak at the heart of men, and it's what i try hard to reach, if i can. Music deprived of feeling and passions is insignificant; where from it results that the composer obtains nothing without the performers". Yes Sir !

Today, i change my wallpaper. Not on my computer no, i'm talking about the real one in my entry room. I attack with this major work,
the Symphony No 7 by Anton Bruckner.
Maybe some of you will recognize the background music that i used for my demo "sneaky" on Alps2-Adler castle i posted last year .
Here's the first movement and that's the version i own in my CDs collection, the Wiener Philharmoniker (as often with me) directed by Karl Böhm (sorry Karajan, not this time yet ...)
EDIT : Note the pretty good quality of this analogic record (vinyl). Serioso makes a serious stuff on the Tube ...

An ultra classic by The Cure, extract once more from their album Disintegration which i already spoke highly in this forum.
Little lullaby this time, just to say that i don't listen only to the classics of classical music ...
