Gustav Mahler
Symphony No.1 in D major.
Symphony No.2 in C minor, "Resurrection".
London Symphony Orchestra & Chorus(John Alldis - chorus master)
Sir Georg Solti.
Going through this, (yes, MrsBBM bought me this CD!!!) This surely has to be one of the best recordings of Mahler available? Might check out No.3.Last edited by BBMmk2; 09-05-17, 12:16.Don’t cry for me

Franck. Violin Sonata arr for flute by James Galway. Prokofiev. Flute Sonata in D.
James Galway, flute.
Martha Argerich, piano.
I bought this cd for Mrs. PG who is a big Galway fan. When he had his bad accident all those years ago she made him a 'Get Well' card and was sent a couple of T-Shirts and a charming note by his agent, Michael Emerson.

recently, and again tonight:
Petrushka. CBSO/Rattle. (1947 version)I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

Bernstein
Symphony 1, Jeremiah (Jennifer Johnson Cano, mezzo)
Symphony 2, The Age of Anxiety (Jean-Yves Thibaudet, piano)
Baltimore Symphony Orchestra/Marin Alsop
Bought today, prompted by an email from the local Picturehouse cinema about the new season of ROH Live transmissions, including a Royal Ballet triple bill Bernstein Centenary programme with a revival of The Age of Anxiety, which was one of the best things I've ever seen there.
Any support for a Bernstein thread under Composers?
Would it be hijacked into Bernstein the conductor?
