Both very accomplished works. I wonder what the performances will be like.

[Alan Howe]

That's always the question that needs to be posed, isn't it?

[brendangcarroll]

I am expecting an advance copy and will let you know!

[Alan Howe]

I suspect the difference between yourself and us may be that we aren't Korngold completists with regard to recordings. For those of us who already own one reference recording of these works a new release would have to be obviously superior for us to consider purchase, so the question here would be: is it?
