Missing period instrument Haydn symphonies.

[Eine Alpensinfonie]

Don't suppose you'd care to share it around & make a copy or two (or three, or four, or .......... )

No piracy here please.

OK, forget I asked.

I don't know if they still have it, but a few weeks ago there was a copy of the Hogwood BBCMM CD in the racks at the Windsor BHF charity shop. they tend to have a standard rate of £2.99 per CD, whatever its provenance. I don't get to Windsor much during the winter months, so am unable to check whether they still have that copy for sale. Worth keeping an eye on ebay, too.

You lucky devil -- talk about serendipity!

It wasn't the only BBCMusMag CD that'sbeen mentioned on the Forum over the past week - there was also the Anthony Halstead-led Mozart Gran Partita for 75p! (But I already have that.)

Has anyone noticed how crabby Alpie's got in his retirement?

Oh, and regarding the absence of James Webster's notes from the current boxed set of all but 2 of the symphonies that Hogwood recorded for Decca with the AAM, see http://christermalmberg.se/files/pdf...olume_1-10.pdf . It only covers the first ten volumes of the original releases (basically chronologically up to Symphony No. 75), but it's a lot better than nothing.

[Come to think of it, the 4 later symphonies included in the latest box were recorded somewhat before the main project was started.]

You ain't seen nothin' yet. It will only hit the fan on 5th January when I don't go back to work.

Quite...and as I think I may have already mentioned, Hogwood once said in an interview that he would probably re-record them again (nos. 94, 96, 100 and 104.) when they got to the end of the project. How sad he never got the chance.
