2016 Beautiful sound.

A fairly recent recording with a foursome of great modern artists. Beautiful sound and a wonderful interpretation where the mystical elements 'really come through.' A gorgeous version.

1968

A strongly felt interpretation, attentive to the work’s nuances and ethereal character.
