I haven't heard them but may yet make the effort (still struggling on with Veress/Bartok...energies low surviving a tough year..... keep laying my weary head among the soothing caresses of Baroque, Mozart etc....)...
Why do you describe them as "not particularly Contemporary" , Richard? A matter of stylistic retrospection, etc...?

Beethoven Eroica and Coriolan, Jordi Savall , Concert de Nations.
But should I be bypassing this to the new (? I’, assuming all five are new) “ Revolution” recordings?I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

PQ has high praise for this new set in the G. Awards issue ("far more finished" than the earlier readings comparatively), but its hard for me to comment much as I ran out of Beethovenian Symphony Steam while traversing the set back in the summer. Nothing but positives though as as I recall....and excellent sound.

I see Cornwall Library Service provides Naxos Music Library access. NML: http://www.for3.org/forums/showthread.php?7506-Online-Naxos-music-library/page2
Hope you are a member with the IT. There is an Ivory Classics Discs with more than a cursory biography in the PDF booklet. "Ruth Slenczynska in Concert" Catalogue No.: 70902
Unfortunately I can't copy any of the text but it starts with her father, a mediocre violinist who was so obsessed with having a musical star in his family he sealed her destiny before she was born. And it proceeds from there.....
