I have written under this thread before. The current situation is:
I have got:
1st Symphony - Judd
2nd Symphony - Slatkin
3rd Symphony - Davis
Falstaff - Tate
In the South - Tate
Froissart - Tate
Serenade for Strings - Slatkin
Light of Life - Groves
(just got this - thanks for recommending)
Dream of Gerontius - Boult
Music Makers - Boult
Violin Concerto - Haendel/Boult (as recommended by someone - thanks for
that)
Cello Concerto - Navarra/Barb/Halle and also du Pre/Barb/LSO
Enigma - Barb/Halle
Intro and Allegro - Barb/Halle
Sea Pictures - Janet/Barb/LSO
and also Greevy/Handley, not sure which I think is best...
Pomp & C Marches - Handley
Now, conspicuously missing is the Cockaigne. I seem to have scooted over
that somehow. Also the Slatkin 2 has taken some criticism and I would like
to try another. I can get hold of Barbirolli with 2 and cockaigne or the
Boult 2 and cockaigne or any other CD which has it on which isn't going to
duplicate things I don't want it to.
And do I want to try any Cantatas? Caractacus/Black Knight?
What about chamber music?
Part songs?
What are:
Dream children
King Olaf
The Spirit of England
The Banner of St. George
The Wand of Youth Suite
Nursery Suite
