| |  | Elgar: Enigma Variations
Recorded at the Great Hall, Birmingham University, 1989 “Dr Sinclair’s bulldog Dan really barks for once; I have rarely heard this little bit of musical depiction so well handled. Basil Nevison and Lady Mary Lygon could be more moodily atmospheric, but Boughton secures fine playing in the finale and the result is most exciting...all the essential points in Elgar’s magnificent scoring come through loud and clear.” MusicWeb International, August 2012 | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |

| |  | Toscanini in London: The Legendary 1935 Recordings
By the autumn of 1934 terms were agreed for Toscanini to conduct four broadcast concerts during the third London Music Festival in June 1935, with the BBC Symphony Orchestra, founded in 1930, trained by Adrian Boult, and widely recognized as Britainís foremost ensemble. Previous guest conductors included Richard Strauss, Mengelberg, and Koussevitzky; Toscanini's son-in-law Vladimir Horowitz had been a soloist with the orchestra and his positive experience had no doubt contributed to the Maestro’s decision to accept the invitation. After the first, long sold-out concert on June 3, the following day’s critics were unanimous in declaring Toscanini to be pre-eminent in his art. There were four programs, each given twice (with slight changes), and all recorded ‘on spec’ by HMV; eventually all works (except a Geminiani concerto, issued here for the first time) were released on LP or CD, but have been unavailable for many years, and are now released in greatly improved sound. “This WHRA set is a splendid one. The sound quality is good while the documentation is fully up to the label’s usually high standards. As for the music-making, well the quality of that is quite exceptional...This set will be self-recommending to all acolytes of the Maestro who don’t already possess all these performances but it should also be snapped up by all who value great conducting.” MusicWeb International, 23rd April 2013 | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
