Members will be interested to hear that BBC Radio 3 is to broadcast Ruth Gipps' Symphony no 3 next Wednesday 4th December as part of a concert from Salford.  The concert runs from 14:00 to 15:30 local time and the symphony is the last work.   There is no commercial recording of the symphony, though we do have a recording in our Archive.

Many thanks for this notice. Please could a member upload a good quality recording following the broadcast and I will add it to the archive...

Fingers tightly crossed this means a Chandos recording is in the offing for 2020!!

I really enjoyed this compact work, which got an excellent performance. A good quality mp3 upload in lieu of a commercial recording (it may be that Chandos will oblige - coupled with the 5th?) would be very welcome. Many thanks.

I recorded the work and have uploaded the mp3 files to the download section:
http://artmusic.smfforfree.com/index.php/topic,506.195.html

There was a very low-pitched rumble (as I often find with BBC broadcasts on my computer).  I've removed as much of this as possible without spoiling the rest of the audio.

As this is the first time I have ever used Mediafile, I should be grateful for feedback on whether the upload has worked properly.

Hi David, the recordings are absolutely spot-on and a great listen, many thanks! I have uploaded spare copies to the archive and will amend the catalogue in due course.

Many thanks for making this available - Symphony 3 is a favourite, and the recording is fine to my ears.
Any chance that Symphony 1 will be performed/recorded any time soon? Chandos perhaps, as a coupling for No.3?
