A Lark Ascending Posted January 28, 2016 Report Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Not really sane to play in one go as it's a collection of sets of variations on the title tune. Especially liked the CPE Bach harpsichord version. Disc 3 Edited January 28, 2016 by A Lark Ascending Quote

A Lark Ascending Posted January 29, 2016 Report Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Concerto reminds me of Prokofiev. Delicious. Howells was apparently spellbound by RVW's Tallis Fantasia at its premiere. You hear that here. Edited January 29, 2016 by A Lark Ascending Quote

Kubelik`s live recordings offer superb alternative readings of Mahler Symphonies .... partially I do prefer these, nevertheless wouldn`t like to part with his studio recordings either .... Quote

Yes, I agree. Kubelik's live reading of DLvdE with Janet Baker on Audite is absolutely shattering.  That recording is DEFINITELY my favorite performance of that work. Quote
