Reply To: Different versions of the same work?
Well, in that case I would say you are obviously PERFORMANCE-centric then. At least that’s how I would understand the term. Which is fine, of course.
That wouldn’t really fit, because the point is that I’m NOT partcularly hung up on performance minutia, and DEFINITELY not comparative performance minutia between different recordings. I just need it to be “fine”. It’s more like “I want to listen to the title LAWRENCE OF ARABIA now, so I put on the CD that I have”, rather than a need to compare it to other recordings, desire other recordings, be curious about other recordings etc. etc. It’s all very laidback. I take what I have, if what I have is okay.
