CD selling is not an easy business in the 21st century and we truly appreciate your ongoing custom. Despite it being December, we have plenty to offer you this month! New releases are in abundance, albeit without so many of the usual ‘high profile’ releases that usually appear each month. Titles to point out are Stephen Hough’s brand new Brahms Piano Concertos on Hyperion, the final Ring Cycle instalment (Gotterdammerung) from Janowski on Pentatone and a couple of new Britten issues from LSO Live and NMC. There are also plenty of historical items to look at, with the availability of these labels improving week by week. Special offers include further titles from Warner/EMI, a selection of great value re-issues from Sony, wonderful choral recordings from The Sixteen and The Tallis Scholars, two historical labels in the shape of Myto and Andromeda, plus the extraordinarily strong catalogue from Finnish label, Ondine. With Christmas around the corner, we have also compiled a selection of festive titles to be found on p.11. Finally, a couple of information points: last posting dates for Christmas can all be found on p.12. Some of you further afield may not receive this until after the dates have passed - we generally find that these dates are pretty conservative, so provided you get your order to us asap, you may find that delivery still occurs before Christmas. Unfortunately, we are having to increase our carriage charges from January 2014. Details of these new charges can be found on the order form now, but we will not be enforcing them until the New Year. We have tried to keep them to a minimum, but steeply increasing costs have sadly necessitated this rise. Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas, The Europadisc Team DON’T FORGET - UK Carriage is FREE over £35! VAI DVD New Releases continued from back page...
