This is great, thank you! Has it been decided which month these will be released?

From the Cover displayed on the youtube video this is clearly Vol. 73.

Wonder who's vol. 72 after the 71 Czerny.

The Romantic Piano Concerto, Vol. 73 - Roger Sacheverell Coke

Piano Concerto No 3 in E-flat Major, Op. 30      
Piano Concerto No 4 in C-sharp minor, Op. 38      
Piano Concerto No 5 in D minor, Op. 57


Simon Callaghan (piano), BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Martyn Brabbins (conductor)


The exerpts sound very promising, especially No. 3. As the Composer himself withdrew PC No. 1 & 2 and we have 3, 4 and the existing part of No. 5, that leaves us with 6.

Gareth Vaughan

No it doesn't unfortunately. The composer listed 6 as "unfinished" in his own published work list, and the MS is presumed lost as it is not amongst those deposited with Chesterfield Library nor amongst the music inherited by his nephew. The Hyperion disk gives us all the existing PCs by Coke.
