Wow! What a feast. Unfortunately I shall be a few thousand miles from home when it is broadcast. If someone could record and upload these works then my gratitude would be (almost) unbounded.

[britishcomposer]

Of course I will - try...

So many things may happen. But I am at home at least.

It's good to announce such things here so that others have the chance to do their own recording - in case one person should fail to do so.

Amazing. I've wanted to hear this since 1981...

  I also try to record it.
  Thanks to tell us about this broadcast

[EarlyRomantic]

Just a friendly reminder! I hope someone will generously record this for us all. I believe it will be an important find. Sincere appreciation in advance.

I recorded the broadcast and will upload it shortly. However, the program had been changed as you will see. Only the second part of the Oratorio op. 24 has been broadcast. I was mentioned that CDs would be released next year.
But MDR Figaro seems to broadcast the complete oratorio on Sunday.
Here is the URL in case you would like to record the broadcast. I plan to do so myself.
