Tippett, Michael Kemp (1905 - 98)

Not sure you'd readily find a copy of them though.
Maybe you need to plan a longer visit to York than you had last time! They're all on the shelves here.

PS: Here's the Carlton one.

That conducted by the composer is available from QOBUZ, as is the Hickox.

I've just been listening to Hickox's no.2 and I would have to say that the structural drama of the first movement is somewhat flattened out compared with how I remember Davis. Time for Brabbins next then. Or it would be if the CD were in the same country as me.

Thanks all - have plumped for Secondhand British Music Collection of Davis in 1-3 .

A sound choice. You might consider supplementing it with this Tippett/BBC issue of No.4 (with No.2), available very cheap second-hand:

Seconded! Mentioned in my post #216 (as a single issue to supplement a set, as well as the Barstow/Leppard S3).
