Yes, the extra track is available on Qobuz too.

Thanks for the heads-up jasthill. The album is available for streaming on Qobuz (my preferred streaming platform) at CD quality, with pdf booklet to read. I will add it to the weekend's listening list!

A new version of these quintets is now out on CPO from the indefatigable Mr Triendl:

Forthcoming in June from LSO Live:

I tried to link this to the previous thread on this opera, but could not, so maybe one of the moderators can help me here.

Done [Mark]

I saw this reported yesterday on slippedisc.com:

Qobuz has it available already to stream, for those who Qobuz   

According to EM Records' website, it is indeed available now - I ordered mine today.

Thank you, looking forward to its release 

There is another disc on its way soon (December), but sadly all I can see is the orchestra and conductor, and "Orchestral Music Vol 1":

I tried the conductor's website, but it while it mentioned this was in preparation, no details were given.

Can anyone else shine more light on this?

From roughly the same period (moderator's edit: i.e. as the Symphonie-Poème No.1) is his rather excellent Cello Concerto, here in a performance by the MDR Symphony, with Matt Haimovitz as the cellist, and Dennis Russell Davies conducting.

Now available on Pentatone https://www.prestomusic.com/classical/products/9535369--de-hartmann-cello-concerto#related

Some months ago, there was a request posted by William Vann and the English Song Festival for funding for a proposed Chandos recording of Parry's early work, Prometheus Unbound. It now seems that this was successful, as it is listed as forthcoming from Chandos in September.

Apparently the first modern recording/performance since a radio broadcast conducted by Vernon Handley, and the cast looks pretty starry, and William Vann is of course a known Parry expert from his recording of Judith, also for Chandos.

Forthcoming in August from Rumon Gamba on Chandos:

Mouthwatering
