Well do check out the Linn Tallis Fantasia, the free track at end of Britten Serenade.
Was very pleased with string sound. Pulsating performance with more attention paid to short phrases than the long line, but I think I like it.
Will do.
Do you know the Constantin Silvestri and Bournemouth SO recording for EMI? Recorded in Wells Cathedral and full of mystery as if inhabited by some spirit from Tallis' time. Easily my favourite performance because of this atmosphere but not a recommendation necessarily for recording quality.
which of course was the "One."
I found many Marriner Argo lps with the Tallis but never came across Silvestri. Always looking for atmosphere so will check out.
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.
