I have the set of seven symphonies conducted by Vernon Handley with the Ulster Orchestra on Chandos, and I have not compared these performances with any other. I've been whistling parts of the fourth all day now. Reminds me of the Brahms Liebeslieder Waltzes in places, then Mendelssohn, then back to Brahms Serenades. Charming music.
