[Alan Howe]

I've chosen the Fitelberg to listen to first because it'a 49-minute monster! It's extremely romantic, full of the most beautiful melodies - in other words, right up my musical street. Is it too long? - undoubtedly. Do I care? - not for a moment.

Like the Caro CD, this appears to be complete on YT - which is perhaps disheartening for those who have purchased either disc!

[Mark Thomas]

People, including members here, have tried to explain to me the commercial logic for performers or labels doing this and it still makes no sense. Paid-for streaming platforms, yes, but YouTube?

Odd movements as enticements to purchase the CD/download are understandable, but to make the whole thing available is crazy. The music is immediately attractive, and so that tactic would surely have paid off.
