OCTOBER 2008 LIST See inside for valid dates Dear Customer Another bumper list for you, not long after the previous one it seems, or are we just getting older…? After last month’s double list, we have again been beavering away to come up with a large selection of price reductions (see page 13 onwards) along with more outstanding new releases and box sets. In particular, see the new Rene Pape Arias & Pollini’s Chopin on DG, Janine Jansen’s Tchaikovsky on Decca, Joyce Didonato’s Handel Arias on EMI, and lots of good things on Hyperion, Chandos & Harmonia Mundi. There is another chance to obtain some little recorded Vaughan Williams on the Albion label, this time his songs for mixed chorus (page 6). The ‘back catalogue box set at minimal price’ sequence continues with Messiaen on DG, Puccini on Decca, Rostropovich, Messiaen & Cziffra on EMI, Bernstein, Ormandy & Puccini on SonyBMG and Handel & Berlioz on Warner Classics. All nicely packaged and great value. This month’s price bargains on mainstream labels include Box sets, Triples, GROCs, Historical sets & DVDs all from EMI, the SDG, Halle, Nimbus & Prima Voce labels, not forgetting the whole Arthaus, Christopher Nupen & Tony Palmer DVD catalogues. We hope that all adds up to there being something for everyone, whatever your taste. We look forward to supplying your requirements. Best wishes to you all.
