Maybe for the third time (or even more)  I have to spend one word or two in praise of BBC Music , July release.
Indeed I suppose that the recording of Parry Fifth Symphony (which I like a lot since Boult's last recording) will widen much the knowledge of this splendid work and of its Composer.
I remember that BBC Music in the past already gave the fine "Elegy for Brahms".
(One word of praise also for the Moeran Symphony, known to me since remote LP days).

Not a very useful magazine, I find. The reviews are too short and lack the sort of detail one needs in order to make comparisons. Its best feature is undoubtedly the free CD - which is the only reason I ever buy it. Which is where alberto came in, I guess...
