Indeed its purchase was down to you, Ali: a fact which I had intended to acknowledge in my earlier post. Fine for the occasional splurge, yes, though I don't think it's going to make it into my list of essential fourths...

Johann Nepomuk Hummel's B-minor Piano Concerto with Martin Galling at the piano
Stuttgarter Philharmoniker, Alexander Paulmüller.
What do you reckon to that then, CD? Apologies, I don't understand the question. You mean do I likes it? It sounds very good. Nice recording. Not very clever music, but quite well made, and certainly easier to understand than some of the other concertos I have been teaching my stewdents. Also not as strong as his trumpet concerto, perhaps only b/c I am weak for trumpets. |

Sorry CD, another UK colloquialism. But you guessed its meaning correctly. Now then, perhaps you'd return the favour...  |

= I have a weakness for trumpets. It isn't a colloquialism, but a malapropism. Bugger! Do you know that Britten fanfare in 3 keys for 3 trumpets? I forget the name. A real gem! |

Fanfare for St. Edmondsbury, CD. Not only in three keys, but three very different styles, first heard consecutively and then simultaneously: wonderful stuff.

Thanks, Ardie!
Know of a good recording? Is it part of a larger work?

Seedy,
It's a stand-alone piece; the PJBE recording seems to be out of the catalogue right now, but there should be one on BIS available: I'll get back to you on this...

Thank you for the references, Rond. I would prefer to buy the decca bit, but I have funding issues, so I'll probably look for the item on the Amazon link. |

Tippett: Third Symphony; Robinson/BournemouthSO/Hickox (CHAN 9276), followed by BBC Radio Classics Barstow/BBCSO/Leppard live from a concert at the RFH 15.xii.76 (15656 91402).
Is the text of the Third Tippett available online, does anyone know? Or can someone post it here, perhaps. Not very easy to hear the words on the Listen Again broadcast from last week. |

along with virtually the whole of the rest of the series You're joking, Ron? Knot Garden and all??? The whole series, with the exception of the Boult RVW set has gone, tinners. Knot Garden has been incorporated into the second Universal Box, tinners, squeezed onto a single 80'33" disc. So you get the Langridge song cycles ( Heart's Assurance, Boyhood's End, Songs for Achilles and Ariel), the C Davis Child of Our Time, the Cleobury/Schola Cantorum Choral Music, Byzantium and the Tear/Sinfonietta/Atherton Songs for Dov all for very little, if you know where to look: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B000BV5RD8/ref=sr_1_olp_14/026-4233988-2490062?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1183546111&sr=1-14 |
