Parry Symphonies

Thanks for the recommendations, and the cowpat education. The Boult fifth does not appear to be available at a sensible price, so I'll try one of the Chandos recordings.

Good Heavens, you're right! I'd mis-read the decimal point on the price (£2.40 seemed very "sensible"! )

The Bamberts are excellent.

Anybody heard the Naxos/Andrew Penny recordings?

Wow! Unbelievable. I guess it'll be re-released at a sensible price, but...

Andrew Penny is good, but Naxos are seriously dragging their heels in completing the set.

Here's a rather good box at a very reasonable price:

This is an excellent set - I have it myself - seems to be on Amazon at an even better price.

I agree Boult made me realise that Parry was worth listening to.
