Today the plumbers are using a diamond core drill, about 5 feet above my head in the room above where I'm sat. It's a stone wall about 2 feet thick with a cavity in between . Yesterday he hit a granite block. He spent 5 hours trying to drill/cut through and got about 5 inches. He ended up having to go outside and remove the offending blocks.
The question what music masks the sound of the diamond core drill best. The sound is........loud! like a helicopter landing out on the lawn😂. Right we have Lili Kraus again playing Mozart Piano Concertos nos 11 - 19. I may well have to change it to PRIMUS or something more raucous!

Today I'm listening to Mozart's Complete Piano Concerti, played of course by Lili Kraus. My brother managed to find a brand new boxed set of the 1965 to 1966 Columbia Recordings with the Vienna Festival Orchestra and Stephen Simon conducting. In my humble opinion this is by far the finest interpretation of these concerti you'll ever hear, moreover Columbia did a fantastic job of recording it.
I listened to the famous Geza Anda recordings but from 1961, however I felt that the recording itself was slightly harsh and over trebly. I had to return that boxed set of Geza Anda's version. It was in excellent condition but towards the end of CD 1, the CD player went completely haywire and it's never done that before or since with hunIMG_20230715_130321.jpgIMG_20230715_130333.jpgdreds of CDs played
Back to the boxed set of Lili Kraus playing Mozart's Piano Concerti, it's so beautifully presented that they've made each CD look like a little LP on the label side. I can pretend I'm listening to LPs on vinyl.IMG_20230715_130406.jpg
