NOVEMBER 2007 LIST See inside for valid dates Dear Customer Another plentiful list for you to get your teeth into this month - an abundance of new releases and significant price reductions on labels that we hope you will find irresistible. The fascinating new Cecilia Bartoli ‘Maria’ recording is out this month, taking as her inspiration the remarkable Maria Malibran and including many forgotten bel canto jewels. Harmonia Mundi have a new Handel Solomon recording with Sarah Connolly and a strong cast which is already attracting excellent reviews and receives a Gramophone Editor’s Choice. For Karajan fans, there are yet more re-issues of his classic recordings on DG, Angela Hewitt plays Schumann on Hyperion, Gardiner’s next Bach disc appears on SDG, and the Glenn Gould ‘Original Jacket Collection’ is now available as individual discs, plus much more…. Price reduction campaigns feature Lyrita, Ponto, Pentatone, Simon Rattle, Warner boxes and DVDs from Euroarts and Arthaus. We must make mention of the UK postal strikes during October which affected us all to some extent. Not surprisingly, many orders were delayed and deliveries were taking much longer than is normal. There was also a resulting backlog in the Royal Mail system which took some time to clear. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this period. We hope for a trouble-free run up to Christmas. Mark, Richard & Mike CHANDOS and BIS special reductions extended until 23 November!
