Title: Festival Overture on the Danish National Anthem

We all agree that Tchaikovsky is not an unsung composer yet this particular recording is. I'm in the process of reviewing the new Brilliant 55 CD collection of his works. I remember it grabbing my attention in 1981, an early digital LP. Simon conducts the London Symphony. This work never caught on but I like it anyway. For your info I've only listened to 6 of the 55 so far.

Still working on the Tchaikovsky project but I had the opportunity to pick up nearly 300 Vox CD's for a good price. Included were some Tchaikovsky material not in the box. Included were music from the Voyevoda and Oprichnik which I never had before. To me these are unsung. I found the Bamberg Symphony to be acceptable. I'm kind of excited going through some of the other CD's also.
