I just saw the announcement of Frank Shipway's death on Music Web International. He was 79.I know he had a lot of fans around here.

He was a "sleeper" conductor who I think could have gone to the forefront, had times or situation been a little different.........
Still conducted far and away the best Rachmaninoff 2nd Symphony I've experienced.
I just uploaded the whole performance of Shipway's Rachmaninoff Two.... The sound is not the greatest, it was originally recorded off an FM radio to cassette deck.... But if you can listen through that, this should be an enthralling experience.

Is there a way to copy/record this performance as streaming audio on to CD?

At Blossom Music Center.
In the fall of 1980, I first heard the performance as a freshman at Case Western Reserve University, on a radio broadcast. (I remember the first half of the concert included Rossini's Semiramide Overture.) I was so floored by that performance, several months later when the station announced it would replay the performance, I borrowed a cassette deck and recorded it. This was the very recording that was digitized (with tape hiss reduction and dynamic restoration) and uploaded.

Thanks, Todd--looking forward to hearing this.
R.I.P.
Streaming this tonight in his memory.
Great recording, by the way.
