Whoop de do! Any idea what the two Röntgen symphonies might be like. Alan?

[Hofrat]

The CD's are not available till the end of July 2009.  BTW, does CPO accept PayPal transfers?

[Alan Howe]

The symphonies were both written in 1930. I believe that No.8 is the one with solo soprano already recorded on NM Classics.

I've no idea about jpc and Paypal - sorry.

I thought the Ries VC only existed in piano reduction.  Did someone orchestrate it, or did they find a copy of the full score?

[Alan Howe]

No, Toskey says that the parts are in the Fleisher Collection.
