In Reply to: RE: Looks like the Chandos RVW Symphony SACD series will be finished! posted by diw on December 20, 2016 at 12:41:55
The sound on the LSO Chandos recordings with Hickox wasn't so great (in fact, the Sea Symphony recording that he did earlier was a better performance--except for the baritone--and had much better sound).
But the other Hickox performances are really good, and I won't listen to any version of #2 except the Hickox, because it's the original edition and includes some wonderful material in the last movement that unfortunately got chopped from the revision.
Follow Ups:
No doubt that Chandos SQ has improved since the original Hickox recordings. I wouldn't mind if Davis recorded an entire RVW cycle on SACD. But that, or any other SACD RVW cycle is unlikely, so I am very happy with this.
