Anyhow, enough to look forward to with anticipation: https://www.duttonvocalion.co.uk

The absence of Maximilian Steinberg's last three symphonies from the cd catalogues has long been a mystery to me so it is splendid to see this recording of the Fourth. Perhaps one day we might get Nos. 3 and 5?

I have also ordered the Clifford cd. The other new Duttons do not excite me. I can understand people being interested in original versions of works like the Walton Violin Concerto or indeed in alternative and new interpretations but I would personally prefer previously unrecorded repertoire and there are a number of fine but unrecorded British violin concertos. If however it is all about sales then presumably Dutton knows what it is doing and I recognise the imperative.

I feel much as Colin does. I am very pleased about the Clifford, hope there's something in there as inspiring as his wonderful Symphony. I'm toying with the idea of the other British ones: I'm not really a film person, but I do like VW and can I ever have too many recordings of Walton's Violin Concerto? On the other hand Heifetz probably said the best there is to be said about that work.

Having looked again, I've realised I don't actually have a recording of the Bliss Violin Concerto, so that's something to look forward to; the Chaminade will be interesting too, as I have heard little of hers; and maybe I'll enjoy that film score somehow, in lovely Dutton sound, rather than the scratchy old recording of a few bits that the composer made.

Certain releases are Gilbert and Cellier's comic opera 'The Mountebanks' (1891) and Sullivan's monumental 1873 oratorio 'The Light of the World', which was recorded 22nd-25th April, both with BBC forces. Other than those, I know not...

Dear Mr Hibbard
Surely i listened it (was uploaded on UC or Van Rijen) but more so IMHO a new stereo and digital recording would be a great improvement
Best

P.S.
It's a great loss that Kabalevsky's film music hasn't been recorded it could be well compared to Prokofiev and Shostakovich,i tell because Dutton release also soundtracks

One of the reasons that more Soviet era music has not been re-recorded with modern technology, is that the reorganized Melodiya still owns and has reasserted its copyrights or may be in the process of reasserting its copyrights in the future.. leading some record executives to shy away from any new projects... i.e.  Vasilenko, Peiko, Alexandrov, Popov....  I was told that by Klaus Heymann back a few years ago.

Christopher, have a look at our Russian and Soviet Downloads. I once posted it right there and the link should still be active.

In July the chorus and orchestra of English National Opera under Martyn Brabbins will record four pieces by Havergal Brian:

Overture "For Valour" (1902/06)
Fantastic Variations on an Old Rhyme (1907)
Cantata "The Vision of Cleopatra" for soprano, mezzo-soprano, contralto, tenor, chorus and orchestra(1908) (realised by John Pickard)
Two Choral Pieces for female voices and orchestra (formerly known as Two Herrick Songs) (1912)


The two purely orchestral works featured on Naxos cds originally issued in the 1990s and both together with the work previously known as the Two Herrick Songs on old Cameo Classics cds in amateur performances by the City of Hull Youth Orchestra.

This will be a very well-stocked cd with over 70 minutes of music. Personally I would have liked a new recording of Psalm 23 and, perhaps, "In Memoriam" but no doubt these will follow in time.

More proof that Dutton seem to be alive and kicking :)

Now,now.....mustn't gwumble!! ::) ;D I do understand,though. For Valour is very probably one of my least favourite Brian pieces. Best leave that sort of thing to Elgar!! On the other hand,In Memorian is early Brian at his best. But it's stll a great program. This will be something to look forward to! :) :) :)
