Great news!
This is turning out to be a great year for unrecorded symphonies finally making it onto cd :) :)

The remaining unrecorded symphonies: Nos. 9, 11 and 15 will present the greatest difficulties. No.9 is scored for narrator and chorus, No. 11 for chorus and No.15 for soprano, baritone and womens' chorus. That obviously increases the cost and other difficulties.

Oh yes, I am very happy to read this! Thanks a lot for the alert!
Colin, of course you are correct about the remaining unrecorded symphonies. On the other hand, Weinberg is now a composer of a certain recognition, and given that Symphonies Nos. 6, 8 and 18 (all with choir) have already been recorded by Naxos I think there is a good chance that the remaining three symphonies will also come out on CD at some point. I think I once read that Vladimir Lande was planning to record Weinberg's complete symphonies anyway, though I think so far Naxos have concentrated on those which have not been released by Chandos (nothing wrong about this, of course).

Yes, that's true, the recording of the Serenade is the first CD recording but not the first recording of this work at all (unlike in case of the symphony, of course). Actually I have the Gauk recording of the serenade, I think it was once uploaded for one of the forums.
