Naxos favourites

[MickyD]

There are some remarkably good Walton discs on Naxos, too, from Paul Daniel and David Lloyd-Jones.

Same experience, here. Walter Piston - American composer well-worth investigating - if you haven't already done so.

I have 3 Walter Pistons on Naxos - a selection of chamber works recorded in Australia, 3 works for violin and orchestra, and symphonies 2 and 6.
I also have 3 Waltons on Naxos - the 1st symphony, the violin and cello concertos, and the piano and string quartets.

Very impressed with the recent Liszt series issues, especially those by Goran Filipec.

[Edgy 2]

Numerous excellent recordings of Taneyev (especially the String Quartets) and Weinberg (especially the 8th Symphony,let down though by no English translation of the text)

THe Piston recordings were for the Delos Label and recycled, or rescued, by Naxos

The Seattle/Schwarz tapings certainly are, but the very fine Violin Concertos are a Naxos original (rec.1998), recorded with James Boswell, NSO Ukraine/Kuchar.

What about the Piston Chamber Music recordings? Did Naxos record those as well?
I was in Hong Kong in 2000 and drove to Kowloon to have lunch with the Naxos Supremo, Klauss Heymann (sp?). He had emailed me out of the blue when I had made a passionate defense of Naxos on an Internet Forum that he was lurking on. As I mentioned that I had a planned visit to HK coming soon he invited me to have lunch at his HQ. He was in his late sixties at the time and had spent the morning having some Medical tests so when found out that I was a Physician I spent some time explaining them to him. He told me fascinating stories about Naxos, his life story, tidbits about Jeno Jando, Bernd Glemser, and Antoni Wit (all of whom he admired tremendously). He asked me what Composer I would like to see them explore and I mentioned Perischetti and William Schuman.

He was fascinating and very charming. My one brush with a Giant ofthe recording industry

No-one else tried that new Darrell Ang D'Indy release yet? The Saugefleurie is really lovely!

Interesting links, thanks Dave.
I just remembered one detail of my visit. I left behind a light cotton jacket, which he shipped to my home in the states along with a few of soon to be released CDs
