Grazyna Bacewicz: Symphony No 3 (1952) Krakow Philharmonic Orchestra / Roland Bader
Talking of women composers,I listened to a cd-r of this symphony a few days ago & was very impressed by it. In fact,I thought it was fantastic (it really packs a punch!) & it again made me wonder why this composer is not better known & more widely performed! I remember taping this symphony off Radio 3 years ago,at least twice. Once by seeing a plug in timer to switch on the cassette recorder during Radio 3's 'Through the Night'! There is a newer recording on Dux,which I have not got!! I've got her String Quartets on my external drive & must get around listening to them (being a fan of String Quartets). Interesting cover art!!
