Music of Arnold Bax

124.179.238.164

Just realised this composer is poorly represented in the collection so would be interested to hear comments about his music.

In particular Chandos have a release of 9 volumes on CD which appear to cover most of his works. Anyone familiar with these CDs?? I've put a link to volume 1 below. No mention of these in the Penguin Guide so I've no idea how good or bad these CDs are.

Any info appreciated.

TIA

John

Sadly (or is it happily?) an incurable audio-video nutter with an indecent number of toys. Classical music forever!!!!

I'd start with some of the symphonies... - Daverz 22:10:52 04/30/09 (0)
The Lyrita Lp's are stunning; IMHO the 2nd is best of all and Lyrita Lp of Tintagel, etc. - jdaniel@jps.net 20:57:38 04/30/09 (1)
- 2nd the Lyrita's (on LP anyway). 7th Sym. on Lyrita is Leppard/LPO, Tintagel is Boult/LPO. nt - Rick W 10:39:11 05/01/09 (0)
