31  Assorted items / Commercial recordings (vintage, new and forthcoming) / Krzysztof Meyer: Symphony 8 etc. on DUX on: October 25, 2019, 02:16:32 pm
Of particular interest to me is this première recording of Krzysztof Meyer’s Chansons d’un rêveur solitaire, op. 116 and  Symphony No. 8 'sinfonia da Requiem', op. 111 on Dux. Due for release November, 22. Although I only know the 7th symphony and some early orchestral by him, it’s fascinating music.

A sure buy for me. Symphony no.12.... Strange, Wikipedia states Gunning composed 8 symphonies, but that information can be dated. And https://www.christopher-gunning.co.uk/ states 7. Does anyone has a complete worklist of this composer? Gunning's entry on this forum seems to be dated too.

Dead silence on this topic. Pity, Lyrita. I eagerly await the rest of Jones' symphonies!

35  Assorted items / Commercial recordings (vintage, new and forthcoming) / Heinz Winbeck - 5 symphonies on: August 17, 2019, 11:54:57 am
Available from September, 6 https://www.jpc.de/jpcng/classic/detail/-/art/heinz-winbeck-symphonien-nr-1-5/hnum/9424806

Heinz Winbeck (11 February 1946 – 26 March 2019)[1] was a German composer, conductor and academic teacher. He is known for five large-scale symphonies, which he programmatically subtitled, such as "Tu Solus" and "De Profundis". As a composition teacher in Würzburg, he shaped a generation of students.
Winbeck's First Symphony was premiered in 1984 at the Donaueschinger Tage für Neue Musik and recorded by WERGO, combined with Winbeck's second string quartet, with Dennis Russell Davies conducting the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Saarbrücken. Winbeck's Fifth Symphony "Jetzt und in der Stunde des Todes" (Now and in the hour of death) reflects sketches of Anton Bruckner's unfinished 9th Symphony. The work in three movements of about 55 minutes was played by the Bruckner Orchestra Linz, conducted by Dennis Russell Davies on 1 March 2010 at the Stift St. Florian. The same year Winbeck started a collaboration with the Landestheater Linz, which resulted in the ballet "Lebensstürme" (Storms of life).

No need to. I prefer the complete symphonies on cpo. Magnificent performances.

The Symphony No.6 in B flat major by van Hoof was left unfinished at the time of the composer’s death. The first three movements were fully scored but van Hoof had only scored the first three bars of the Finale, an assertive brass fanfare playing for ten seconds. It is (or – rather – should have been) in four movements of broadly equal length.

William Stromberg started the Tribute Film Classics label, I think it was around 2008, and recorded The Prince and the Pauper (Moskou Symphony orch., under William Stromberg). Probably the label left the scene. They were very ambitious with Korngold, Steiner and the like.

Agree, a titbit of Juarez is on this double CD: Juarez Overture, 1939 & Captain Blood [rec. J.Morgan]

Although there're some negative reviews here and there (production, singing of the tenor, acting) a sure buy for me.

Interesting release on CD with ballet suites by Lhotka and Baranovic from Decca, 1950s: https://www.prestomusic.com/classical/products/8549705--springtime-in-yugoslavia Not sure if Janacek would be pleased with categorizing him under Yugoslav....

If you want SACD quality Spotify is crap; that's why I still buy (SA)CD's. What resolution does Idago offer? 320kb?
