I think this has been mentioned before in these fora, but just in case you didn't know, Guarnieri's two VCs as well as the Choro for violin and orchestra are on the violinist Luiz Filip's YouTube channel :).

One tiny addition to the discography:
-The Dansa Brasileira from Three Dances for orchestra exists on Sony (no less than Bernstein and NYPO).

A great site with resources for Camargo Guarnieri's music is

More generally, this site is devoted to a huge number of Brazilan composers
-> just follow the links there at the sidebar.

Good to see you all here too! And great that Colin now embarks on Latin American masters (I was three weeks in Turkey and didn't see this forum, and missed it  ;). I'm a big fan of Guarnieri too, and own a few cds with other recordings:

The 1947 Prologo Y Fuga from is on ASdisc AS542 in a live recording from 1958 by the NY Philharmonic under Dimitri Mitroupoulos.
The 1972 Concertro for Strings and Percussion is on CHANDOS, CHAN 9804 (I Musici de Montreal under Yuli Torovsky).
The 1928/42 Three Dances for orchestra are also on Dorian, DOR-90227, the Simón Bolívar SO of Venezuela under Maximiano Valdes.

Thank you for these additions, Johan :)

I guessed that you might be away on holiday and I hope that you had a wonderful time in Turkey :)

Sadly-apart from a one-off "special addition"-there will be no more catalogues here in the immediate future.  The one-off addition is a catalogue of the orchestral and large choral/orchestral music of Felix Woyrsch. CPO appears to be taking Woyrsch up so I thought that it would be selfish not to post a Woyrsch work-list.

I shall explain over the weekend.
