As a penance for my facetiousness I've read up about the original language, Akkadian, and the reasons for Martinu setting it in English. Curious, that he made a text in English, from what he assumed was the only readily available version then (in hexameters in English, a most un-idiomatic metric in English!), but at the first performance it was done in German!Originally posted by LeMartinPecheur View PostComment

Maazel's BRSO Bruckner cycle. Bought the mp3s cheaply ages ago from Google but missed full fat sound... Pricey by modern standards, hence wait until ChristmasComment
