BBC Symphony Orchestra & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Sir Thomas Beecham This is the first time these recordings have been made available on CD. The recording is the first performance of Alwyn’s Symphony No.3 and coupled with the Mozart Symphony No 29 was recorded by the BBC Symphony Orchestra at the RFH in October 1956. The Greig was performed at Studio No 1 at Maida Vale on Christmas night, December 25th 1955 “The latest in Somm’s Beecham Collection includes the premiere of William Alwyn’s Third Symphony at the
Royal Festival Hall, in October 1956. This is a powerful and impressive work in three movements, which
reinforces Alwyn’s belatedly recognised position as one of the finest English symphonists of the 20th century.
The slow movement is of nobly tragic stature.” The Sunday Telegraph, 27th April 2008 |

Solveig Kringelborn (soprano), Marita Solberg (soprano), Ingebjørg Kosmo (mezzo-soprano), Håkan Hagegård (baritone) & Trond Halstein Moe (baritone) Bergen Philharmonic Choir & Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, Ole Kristian Ruud To list the various distinctions awarded to the recordings that make up this sumptuous offering is almost impossible; suffice it to say that the entire series received the Grieg Award in 2007, the year of the hundredth anniversary of the death of the composer, as well as a very special commendation by the UK Grieg Society the same year. During 2003-2006, as the individual discs were released, reviewers all over the world were heaping praise over the series – astoundingly enough, as this is repertoire that at least in part belong to some of the most well-represented on disc. But this did not seem to matter to the critics, who described the performance of the Piano Concerto as one that ‘will make you fall in love with the music all over again’ American Record Guide and that of the Holberg Suite ‘so compelling that it simply makes you forget about any other’ Classics Today.com “This exemplary disc also offers us an opportunity to sample Grieg’s virtues and limitations under the best possible conditions, for performances and recording are both outstanding.” Gramophone |
