Does anyone know what became of this? I can't find trace of it online, unless my googling is useless..
Also (separately) - Karabits and the Bournemouth SO performed de Haretmann's ballet music La Fleurette rouge at a concert in the Royal Festival Hall in May 2024. I'm trying to find if that was recorded.
