Indeed It is absolutely inevitable that discussion of a particular topic on a forum such as this will go off on at least one and often several different tangents.I am as "guilty" of tangential discussion as anyone. There is a fine balance between "going with the flow" of such discussion and attempting to curtail it.I should have responded to Latvian's question by locating my "essay" on Wilfred Josephs in a separate thread.
What I don't want to start doing is chiding members for "irrelevance"
My own copies of the Ina Boyle and the Stanford concertos arrived today and I shall report back once I have listened to them.
For the avoidance of doubt, no criticism was intended Colin. ;) ;D :D :) Ina Boyle's
Sea Poem has some striking and dramatic moments. I think this is a CD I am likely to return to.
I look forward to hearing Colin's view on the Stanford early concertos. As I very rarely listen to Stanford's later concertos I decided to skip purchasing this CD although I was, momentarily, tempted by it.
