Here is a link. Not ideal but it will, I hope give you an idea of what I am so enthusiastic about.I think it outclasses the Barbirolli although that is very fine. HMV ASD 521 eh? I have 3 LPs of it and 2 CDS but the Silvestri is the one that gets played.
Posters to the clip also remark upon the wonderful Elgar " In the South" that was on the other LP side. One of the few that gets the viola solo to properly evoke an Italian street song IMO.
Unfortunately the only digital incarnation I know about (and have as well as the HMV Greensleeves LP), is the Silvestri box set that EMI issued and Warner have re-released. Full of gems.
