Unique Classical

Can we share our unique Classical recordings and places to get em?

I got this Cd from a Guy on ebay that had bought out a collection.
With a lotta Google searching found the Church that produced it.
I have tried repeatedly to contact the Church via email to see if they have any more Cd's.
Never heard back from them.....maybe I'll take the direct approach and call em?

Cd is ©2000 Choir of Saint Mary Church [DDD] does have a UPC 660355877629

This Cd is just fabulous! I'd love to find more like it for my collection!!

Nobody has a Unique Classical Cd to share?
I find that hard to believe!!

 

Bump

 

I had this one, but sent it to a friend in Germany that is a huge Szell fan. If you EVER see another set, let me know, even if it is pricey.

Here is a review:

I have a couple more that I will post in a while. Cool thread!

 

I have three Dimitri Mitropoulos cds that were put out by a Nickson Records company. They each feature the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra. they look like a short run and they all three came from the same persons collection. Here is one of the covers:

 

I have three 78 RPM electrical test pressings by the Welsh-born soprano Amy Evans. It was thought that no electrical recordings of her voice had survived, as the masters for her sole electrical sessions were destroyed in a truck accident. The selections are as follows:

D. Foster: I Wonder if Love Is a Dream
Wood: A Brown Bird Singing
Sullivan: My Dearest Heart

All three are piano accompanied. The name "Bergh" is written on the labels, suggesting Arthur Bergh may have been the accompanist, but on the other hand the records may simply have been his property. When she died, Evans may well have been the last surviving member of an original W.S. Gilbert cast (she was in "Fallen Fairies," which he produced with Edward German after ending his work with Sir Arthur Sullivan). A shame that all we have of her commerically is acoustic recordings, themselves not exactly what you'd call common; based on the two or three that I've managed to snare, hers was not a voice that took well to the recording horn, while the microphone test pressings are strong and clear.

 

I remember the old 78 RPM's when I collected records.
Very brittle and very hard to find in decent shape and that was almost 20yrs ago.
I imagine the "good" 78's are like dinosaur bones now?
