My copy of Dohnanyi's Symphony No 1 on Chandos has as a filler his American Rhapsody. This opens with On Top of Old Smokey, which I found so incongruous that I couldn't take the work seriously. Some time later, I bought the 1st Violin Concerto on cpo, again with the American Rhapsody. One version of it would have been enough, but the CD was on special, and there's no choice of versions of the concerto. Now ASV has released the 2nd Violin Concerto which I also want, but Murphy's Law of Diminishing Returns has decreed that the filler on this is yet another version of the American Rhapsody. There are other short works by Dohnanyi they could have used. What's the bet that if I buy the ASV, some other company will release the second concerto with some Dohnanyi I haven't got?
