Christian Ferras

[Barbirollians]

Annoyed to find that Eloquence has already deleted the 19CD box of all Ferras's Decca and DG recordings that are otherwise nla. It was only released last March and as far as I can see from Presto not available to download either. The Icon Ferras remains available and I have been listening through it this week . That Ferras/Barbizet set of the Beethoven sonata bowled me over again . Their partnership is extraordinary like close friends finishing each other's sentences.

I am a few issues behind on Gramophone but I thought that I just read the review of that Eloquence ser

[Pulcinella]

It's still listed on the Eloquence website:

But maybe as a Limited Edition it's already sold out.
Worth contacting them (or Presto) directly?

Yes reviewed in May 2023 . Not on Presto - one copy over £200 on Amazon - and I am not that big an admirer of Ferras !

I am an ENORMOUS admirer of Ferras and even then I don't think I'm up for €200-plus.

I didn't know he'd made that many recordings. He was certainly a faultless player with a pure style. Doubtless fans of Nigg, Egck and Elizalde will rush to buy it.

Found a cheap copy of the 4CD Ferras set on Brilliant Classics - looking forward to its arrival .Meanwhile what an outstanding Brahms Double from Ferras/Tortelier and Kletzki .
