I knew some David Matthews, but virtually nothing of Colin, to name just one composer. They don't always hit home with me, but I've learned that a composer who is too obscure, a few years later makes complete sense to me (i.e., Henze)!<br><br>A question: do you by chance have the Ferencsik Lajtha recording? His recordings of Symphonies 4 and 9 were my first introduction to Lajtha, but along the way the 4th got damaged. The Pasquet recordings are a nice stopgap, but the Ferencsik to my ears was magical!Kolyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15782252894449982656noreply@blogger.com
