My usual CD supplier (Europadisc) have it on offer this week. They too mention the excellent orchestra and fine recorded sound and say " Alsop's performance of the Sixth Symphony is a compelling one: level-headed and finely balanced, it refuses to wallow in the more reflective passages, instead allowing the music to speak for itself".
So, hmmmm. Will I go for it? The series may be a way to familarise myself with the lesser known symphonies like this but I suffer from having too many records!

- Of course you're right - but it's something I'll leave to others (i.e., listening to Alsop's new release) [nt] - Chris from Lafayette 06:33:38 08/14/16 (0)
