Title: Enna anyone?
Post by: Jonathan on Wednesday 02 March 2011, 19:34
I've just ordered this disc from a well known retailer but know nothing aside from what is on Wikipaedia about this composer.  Does anyone else have the disc or know anything useful about what I can expect to hear when the disc lands on the doormat?
Thanks in advance...

Depends on what disc you have ordered, but the cpo recording of Enna's 2nd Symphony has been discussed on this forum:

I have this record myself, and I agree with the comments from Alan and Mark. Skillful orchestration, but I must admit that the record has not been played often after my first hearing. I should give it another go.

Thanks for that M.Henricksen, I'd not seen that thread!
