tel 0115 982 7500 fax 0115 982 7020 MARCH 2016 LIST See inside for valid dates Dear Customer, Two years after DG released their first, deluxe volume of recordings from Leonard Bernstein, the second volume has finally been announced! Due on 18th March, it is in the same LP-sized format as the initial box and will contain 64 CDs primarily focused on Romantic and 20th Century repertoire. It promises to be a very special collector’s item and is available at a discounted price for a short time. See p.2 for further details. Don’t forget that we also have a wide range of individual titles from Bernstein at reduced prices until 24th March (listed in February), including the aforementioned Boxset Volume 1 at just £76.95 (59 CDs + 1 DVD). March is looking strong for new releases, with recordings such as Elgar’s First Symphony from Barenboim (Decca), Honegger and Ibert’s joint work, ‘L’Aiglon’, from Nagano (Decca), Britten and Korngold Violin Concertos from Frang (Warner, already awarded Gramophone’s Disc of the Month in February), Elgar and Walton Cello Concertos from Isserlis (Hyperion), Bach from Jacobs (Harmonia Mundi), Mendelssohn’s arrangement of Handel’s ‘Israel in Egypt’ from The King’s Consort (Vivat), the next volume of Janacek from Gardner (Chandos), a recital of romantic violin sonatas from Ehnes (Onyx) and Bruckner from Jansons (RCO), to name but a few. Linn and Glossa are two excellent independent labels close to our hearts at Europadisc and we are very pleased to be able to offer discount on both throughout March and April. Other new offers include a wide range of early music recordings from Warner Classics, 2CD sets from Brilliant Classics, piano rarities from Grand Piano, all titles on the Mariinsky Orchestra’s own label, a selection of great value boxsets from Harmonia Mundi and DVDs/Blu-rays from Italian label, Dynamic. Please note that we still have a small selection of titles from GOP (Great Opera Performances) left over (see p.20 in the Feb catalogue). We are keen to clear these from stock, so can now offer an additional 20% off the reduced prices. Simply order in the usual fashion - please don’t hesitate to call us for confirmation on availability or pricing. Best regards from, The Europadisc Team DON’T FORGET - UK Carriage is FREE over £35!

This repertoire is supplemented by the five American Decca CDs, with performances and analyses of Beethoven’s 'Eroica', Schumann’s Second, Dvořák’s 'New World', Brahms’s Fourth and Tchaikovsky’s 'Pathétique'. The collection is rounded off by original cast selections from Bernstein’s Fancy Free and On the Town (1945 / 1946). The recordings are presented in original sleeves and with original couplings. The LP-size booklet includes a new essay on Bernstein by Nigel Simeone (editor of the recently published The Leonard Bernstein Letters), a specially-written foreword by Bernstein’s daughter Jamie Bernstein, and a reprint of Michael Gray’s article 'Bernstein Talking About Music'.
