tel 0115 982 7500 fax 0115 982 7020 NOVEMBER 2011 LIST See inside for valid dates Dear Customer Claudio Abbado, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Mischa Maisky, Antonio Pappano, Stephen Hough, The Takacs Quartet, Yevgeny Sudbin, Paul Lewis, David Zinman, Mark Elder, Angela Gheorghiu - just a selection of the artists who all have new recordings released this month! The classical music industry may be changing, but dying it certainly is not. This can also be demonstrated by the wealth of recordings shortlisted for the Gramophone Awards this year. Many of you will now have seen the winners announced and special congratulations must go to the Pavel Haas Quartet - very deserved winners of the Disc of the Year with their recording of two quartets by Dvorak. A reminder of each category winner has been provided on page 10, with reduced prices available on all for a limited time. Boxsets are heavily featured in our special offer listings this month - pages 11 to 18 include titles from DG, Decca, Hyperion, Warner, Regis, Sony, Supraphon and more. Labels such as Linn, Harmonia Mundi and CPO also have their catalogues reduced and DVD offers include rich pickings from C Major Entertainment, Accentus and ICA Classics. Offers that we have sadly not had the space to print include the complete MDG and Pentatone catalogues. Both of these labels feature highly recommended recordings and we are currently able to offer 10% off all titles until 21st December. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if we can help in any way!

PLEASE NOTE There was an error in this section on last month’s list, whereby it was stated that the Channel Classics and Haenssler Classics were available until Christmas. This is incorrect and both offers close on Friday 25th November. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused. Please also note that if you live outside of Europe and North America, we would recommend ensuring that any orders required before Christmas are placed by the end of November at the latest. 1 email [email protected] tel 0115 982 7500 fax 0115 982 7020 NOVEMBER 2011 LIST Prices on this list are valid until 5 pm Friday, 16 December 2011 (orders received) unless stated otherwise.
