What are you listening to?

Good morning @ all.
If one likes the niblet of Mahler 5 from "Death in Venice" (highly recommend to view) @castalla posted, one could give the complete symphony a try! We've had that here before. It is anything but boring or hard to understand music.
If wanted the booklets or Wikipedia will give assists. Or if you like ranting old man Dave Hurwitz on Youtube 😉, he is really a Mahler guy and former conductor.
Lennie Bernstein is still my go-to for Mahler symphonies. First with Vienna Philharmonic.
But the recordings with "his" NYPO or the Concertgebouw are also a yardstick.
And if it fits your taste Bruno Walter, who was Mahler's assistant, will be a good choice for further listening, even when the sound quality is due to the recording dates not as brilliant as on younger recordings.

Ciao
We have the same name. Funny ;) and we both are from Italy.
So, i can say to you my method. It works on PC.
I choose an album on, let me say, Qobuz
I grab the cover using the Win11 tool and save it on my PC
then tap 3 dots on the right
A line of symbols will open under the 3 dots
Tap or click third icon from the left
A small window will open
You can drag the saved cover's image inside the small window
Or
You click inside the window and you can choose where your saved image is.
That's all ;)😊
Ciao

Thanks for the fast reply... my only problem is that i use Mac OS so i must see how to do this on my PC.
Btw i think the simpliest way is to make a screenshot from the Wiim Home app and then share that.
Are you from? I am in Abruzzo....
 
Not very often, but from time to time I like listening to Stephen "Slacker" Malkmus and his band.
As far as I remember the Smashing Pumpkins were not the band's favorites 😇😂

Hi @Maurizio53
May be yes, but as I told I use my PC. By the way I don't use WiiM Home App, too primitive 🤭 I use BubbleUpnP on Android and MConnect on IOS (Tablet).
Both are much better than WHA. ;)
I'm in Liguria 😊 Happy to meet you
 
Waiting for Milan vs Borussia Dortmund, so time for some Dolby nonsense 😉
But this album survives even this. And its fun.
Read you tomorrow!
