      Oh no, next doors are being good as gold ATM.

      Anyway, I’ll mention the Luisi /SRO Honegger symphonies on Quboz as a bargain. I don’t download much, and there was a decent bit of faffing around to get things running, but worth the effort, although you seem to have to download manually (? !) to get the booklet, which I haven’t managed yet.
      £10 for the full 3 CD set .
      I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

      I am not a number, I am a free man.

        I now see that some newspapers were adopting the Beast reference for the weather, which is now coming upon us. Not that I read those.

          ... for those who haven't yet got the Haydn Paris symphonies with Franz Brüggen and the Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century - this twofer should be a bargain -

              How does it compare to the thrilling VCM/Harnoncourt set, Vints?

                    ... speedy answer - you should have them all

                    Can't give a more serious answer - if I can get to Heathrow and if planes are flying, we're off to Ethiopia for the next fortnight...

                      You lucky people! Have a great trip (I have good friends who, if their photos are anything to go by, spent a delightful three weeks there over Christmas/New Year just past). Hope that you've read:



                      which is not at all PC - but very funny.

                      As to Brüggen's Haydn, couldn't agree more - best to have the lot (plus Kuijken, Harnoncourt, Pinnock, Scherchen .....)

                            Indeed, and in terms of works included it starts off well enough, but fairly swiftly enters ES territory. If anyone is considering getting it, there are lower priced offers on other amazon sites across Europe.

                                Nice! Can't afford it at the moment though...
