Dear friends, Ive got this idea from Jeffrey Hall: which recordings do you enjoy but may not be the favourites of the critics and experts? Let me start with two examples (IMHO): MENDELSSOHN & BRUCH VIOLIN CONCERTOS: Ruggiero Ricci/London Symphony Orchestra/Pierino Gamba (Belart). (These recordings were neglected by Decca in favour of many other recordings. The producer responsible for the demonstration- quality sound is not mentioned. Wonderful performances). RIMSKY-KORSAKOV: Sheherazade, etc. The Philadelphia Orchestra/Eugene Ormandy (SONY Essential Classics). (First class recordings and interpretations. A real bargain).
