Does anyone have Gosta Nystroem's Violin Concerto to upload?

The Gosta Nystroem Violin Concerto in the premiere performance in 1957 by Tibor Varga with the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra under Sixten Eckerberg can be downloaded from a number of sites on the net.

I have a copy but I am dubious about uploading it on this site because it appeared on a Philharmonia cd (No.23 in the Tibor Varga Collection) which may or may not still be available.

If I was to be given the go ahead I could certainly rip a a copy and upload it but that will depend on Administrator permission.

Last I saw a post from Mark on this subject availability wasn't the issue, the existence at some point of a commercial CD (not library- or privately-ripped) was. But I'm not an admin...

Shamokin88, I'm starting to love you.

Sorry Colin, as Eric says, if a recording has been available on CD then it can't be posted here.

About the Nystroem Violin Concerto: I have a copy that I could upload but I am hesitant because I have no idea who the performers are. It could be the Tibor Varga premiere that ended up on CD. In any event I obtained it during the spring of 1975 from the composer's daughter. Has anyone guidance to offer?

Thanks to Holger for two more symphonies by Erland von Koch

[eschiss1]

Thanks also to Holger. According to SMDB, Lapponica was recorded by Westerberg (same recording?) in 1977 (and broadcast in 1981 and other times.) Symphony 4 Seria has received at least 2 broadcast recordings- one conducted by Westerberg, one by Goran Nilson; the Westerberg was conducted by 1982.)

The movements of symphony 3 op.38 are 1.Allegro moderato -- 2. Adagio espressivo -- 3. Allegro agitato. Those of symphony 4 op51 are 1. Andante -- 2. Allegretto -- 3. Allegro moderato.

You don't know the name of the pianist in the Nystroem Concerto Ricercante do you, Atsushi?

You don't know the name of the pianist in the Nystroem Concerto Ricercante do you, Atsushi?

It's the Estonian pianist Käbi Laretei (b. 1922)

I have the old Philips LP and the orchestra on that is the Stockholm Philharmonic.  On the Violin Concerto I found this....Tibor Varga Collection - No. 23, Nielsen & Nyström (1993) - UNRELEASED. Does that mean it can be downloaded?

I own the original CD ("Tibor Varga Collection - No.23") - purchased from JPC probably 15 years ago.  It's been commercially released.

  Thanks britishcomposer

I am so grateful to have heard the 4 symphonies of Erland Von Koch posted here. This composer was unknown to me and these symphonies have greatly endeared me to his wonderful music.  The 3rd symphony had strong echoes of Hindemith, did this composer have an association with him? Needless to say, I would greatly appreciate hearing much more of Koch's orchestral music.
