I completely agree with your reservations on Dudamel/The youth orchestra and the largely uncritical coverage of many of the concerts by leading news media is a disgrace..Thanks for continuing to bring this important subject up.

Also worth pointing out that Rafael Kubelik's complete Palestrina is in the catalogue, and is available at some very keen prices online.

Thanks Drew. My search on amazon.co.uk found no trace of the Thielemann disc.

But I have just checked elsewhere, and it is available from Amazon Germany and some internet resellers including Caiman USA, the link is below.

The Amazon Germany price is 10.95€ so this is a real bargain - not to be missed.

Pliable, I agree with you completely about that Thielemann disc of Pfitzner and Richard Strauss. It is stunning.

In addition to the "Palestrina" preludes, I also very much appreciate the overture to "Das Kathchen Von Heilbronn", a piece I never encountered elsewhere. It is incredibly beautiful, and I am surprised it is never programmed.
