Title: Christopher Gunning Symphony 2 Post by: jonah on July 16, 2019, 02:52:33 pm Gunning's 2nd Symphony is being broadcast on BBC Radio 3 this afternoon, performed by BBC National Orchestra of Wales conducted by Kenneth Woods.
This is the only early Gunning Symphony not commercially recorded - is there a chance that anyone could record it and make it available here, please? Or, might this performance be a prelude to a commercial recording anyway?

The CD cover art was better than the music as far as I was concerned. Others clearly enjoy it more than I do.

Just in case you hadn't noticed- a recording of the broadcast of the Gunning Symphony No.2 has been posted in the Downloads section.

P On Kenneth Woods website, his blog/diary has the entry: 4-6 April - Ken records three new symphonies by Christopher Gunning for Signum Records with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales So two more as well as the second - has Christopher G now added Symphonies 8 & 9 to his canon?

He's passed 11 symphonies. Title: Re: Christopher Gunning Symphony 2 Post by: jonah on July 18, 2019, 10:48:47 pm I believe that the three being recorded for release by Signum are 2, 10 and 11.
Title: Re: Christopher Gunning Symphony 2 Post by: relm1 on July 20, 2019, 02:06:24 am The Symphony No. 2 posted was excellent. I am happy to purchase this and further releases from Gunning, it is very much worthy of being heard.
