Originally posted by MickyD View PostYes indeed, Bryn - as a fan of Hogwood and the AAM since they started, I am all too aware that the cycle was never completed and sadly never will be.
And I guess you are talking about the videos of Nos. 79 and 81 on YouTube. I agree, such a shame about the shocking sound quality.

Damnation! I've only gone and punted it! If I get the Dantone disc too I should have a quality example or two of all the symphonies.

The 4 CD Mady Mesplé 80th birthday box can be had for a snip. Great voice of our time in fascinating and varied repertoire.

Melodiya's 125th birthday box of Prokofiev ballets with Rozhdestvensky - 9 CDs, including the composer's 1938 recording of the second Romeo and Juliet suite, will set you back anything between £80 and £100. However, the lossless Qobuz download is a steal at €49.99.
