  Dear Dundonnell,

  I have LP of Jolivet's symphony no.1.
  But I have is LP by INEDITS, not LYRINX.
  Are you OK?
 

  I have is...

  ANDRÉ JOLIVET  (1905-1974) : Symphony No. 1 (1953)
  Marius Constant/Orchestre National de l'O.R.T.F
  BARCLAY INÉDITS 995 008 (LP) (1971)

 
  By the way, my collections of French musics are not many, so I hoped next works long time.
  If anyone have it, I certainly look forward to upload.

Thank you very much, Mark, for the Léon Boëllmann Symphony - it's long been near the top of my wish-list.

[eschiss1]

I think I may have Jolivet's own recording of his first symphony somewhere as well (not sure though if it ever hit CD, will check first that among other things).

[eschiss1]

Boëllmann symphony:
(I) don't know - (II) Intermède variée - (III) Recitative (Andante) - (IV) Presto

Will try to find out (I). Premiered Feb.24 1895 Paris, Lamoureux concerts; English premiere December 1 1897 Queen's Hall Orchestra London conducted by Lamoureux (and from a report on the English premiere the above information is taken- Musical Times, January 1 1898, p26.) Have wanted to see the score or hear the symphony or both for awhile now, thank you.

[Mark Thomas]

Thanks for the info, Eric.

[Dundonnell]

Atsushi,

Your version of the Jolivet Symphony No.1 would do very well, thank you

[lechner1110]

  Dear Mark,

  Thanks a lot for Boëllmann.
  This is also my long time wish work!

  Very good work!  Thanks a lot again!


 

  Dear Dundonnell,

  I will digitize and upload it

Thanks so much for the Boëllmann symphony! I very much look forward to hearing it.

As a practicing church organist, over the years I've played quite a bit of Boëllmann's pieces as preludes, postludes, offertories, etc. They're gratifying to play -- well-written, memorably tuneful, and pleasing to listeners. I particularly like the first volume of his Heures intimes. Not profound, not taxing to the listener (and usually not the organist, either), but very enjoyable, and suitable for its purpose.

Of course, most any familiar with the Romantic French organ repertoire (either as player or listener) will have encountered the Suite gothique. A really gorgeous and memorable piece that I strongly encourage anyone unfamiliar with it to seek it out!

[Latvian]

I have is...

  ANDRÉ JOLIVET  (1905-1974) : Symphony No. 1 (1953)
  Marius Constant/Orchestre National de l'O.R.T.F
  BARCLAY INÉDITS 995 008 (LP) (1971)

A.S., I believe the conductor in this instance is actually Georges Tzipine, not Marius Constant.

There are also at least two different recordings of the 1st Symphony conducted by the composer, one of which is a live performance on Melodiya.

Atsushi -- I, for one, would be very happy to have uploads of any of these symphonies. I already have the Barraine 2nd and Migot 1st, but perhaps someone else would like to them? Also, I have the Loucheur symphonies and like them very much, but my dubs are in horrible sound. Perhaps yours are better?

[Dundonnell]

You are quite correct

Marius Constant conducts the other work on that LP. This mistake is repeated in Michael Herman's (splendid) Discography of French Symphonies.
The Symphony No.2 is on that Lyrinx LP set to which I referred earlier.

I think your  collection of french symphonies is quite astonishing Atsushi : most of them are not even available from the INA website :

[lechner1110]

　Thanks to tell me correct conductor of this recording.
  But, in this case, maybe My LP is same recording of  INA website contents.
  http://boutique.ina.fr/audio/PHF07009498/andre-jolivet-symphonie-n1.fr.html
  So I think I should not be upload my collection.
　What do you think about it?


 

[lechner1110]

  Latvian,  Thanks a lot to post about many works of my wishlist.

　But this group is public community, so I think I should not be request many works .
  I would deeply appreciate it if you upload one or two work from my wishlist.

  Rest of my wishlist, I would like to wait someone upload it someday.

  Thanks!  Atsushi

Atsushi,  I must have misunderstood your note. I thought you were listing French symphonies that you already had, not ones that you were looking for!
