Not much opera (other than Wagner) mentioned so far so I would request Klemperer's Le Nozze Di Figaro (lovely performance from Sir Geraint Evans, Reri Grist, Gabriel Bacquier, Elisabeth Söderström and Teresa Berganza). I have and love his Cosi and Giovanni. Less struck by the Zauberflote.
Reissues you would like to see

The website seems to for a company called Scribendum who also produce their own remasterings of old recordings. (I happened upon the website because I was searching for Svetlanov's Elgar Symphony No2, which they have on their own label.)
Payment is by Paypal.

That'll get you the whole lot for less than 20 quid if you want them before they reappear from someone else.

I can vouch for the genuiness of Scribendum, in that I have met the proprietor (it's a one-man operation) and the business is run about 500 yards from where I write. I have seen some of the products, though never actually been a customer. You might possibily have to make allowances for the scale of the operation in response time, I don't know.

Jimmy Loughran's Brahms 2 with the Halle Orchestra (CFP) was one of the first LPs I bought in Vincents in Needless Alley in Birmingham many years ago. I still treasure it now, with a fine account of the Academic Festival Overture. I also have an LP of his Last Night of the Proms (circe 1980s) which convinced me that I had to be there myself. I've even got some Havergal Brian conducted by this genial Scot. I noted that this year marked his 80th birthday: I hope that he continues hale and hearty!
