#DailyCDBox 21 Foote to Glass
Box a day, playing 1 CD. Enough boxes to last over a year
Today, the beautiful cello concertos by Durham’s own John Garth, a 2CD set.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ga...
This set is one of only two available recordings of his work - it’s sublime…

If you follow me but don’t listen to these, please do me a favour and let me know why that is? Every week, I put together a playlist of superb, in the main, just released music - some of which I then see you guys discussing in my timeline, oblivious that I’ve played it. Any feedback appreciated! Ta!

Today, Dohl to Dvorak
Chose Dohnanyi’s SQs 1 & 3 by the Avivs. Superb. Really must get round to getting the others. Been a fan of Dohnanyi since attending a performance of a string trio in a library in Dublin, May 1997
