Perfectly true but it is increasingly clear that Dutton's focus had changed somewhat. There is more concentration on issuing music which is of a "lighter" nature or music which has been recorded by other companies in alternative versions. I know that I used to buy perhaps 3 new releases from every batch, now it would be one only. The days of getting the complete symphonies of Richard Arnell- for example- seem to be gone.

It was Dutton who recorded the David Matthews Symphonies Nos. 1-3 and 5-7 but Nos. 8 and 9 have been recorded by Chandos and Nimbus respectively.

However, if Dutton feel that they can sell what they produce then that obviously is the most important consideration for them and I have to accept that.
