Thank you so much for this! - Boult's "Love of Three Oranges" has always been a favourite performance.
ReplyDeleteGreat! Been looking for this rare Boult for a while - usual excelent transfers

Yes - rather surprising that the LPO side possibly hasn't seen a reissue since 1962.. Sadly the early Decca Boult/LPO stereos (especially Rach 2 - even as the VICS pressing) don't sound as Dynamic!
ReplyDeleteAlso greatly looking forward to Shostakovich 11 by Rakhlin - should be well worth hearing!
ReplyDeleteThanks - Jerry
