If the recording companies were watching this space, which unrecorded compositions would forum members like to see them record? Three CDs-worth of suggestions per person only, please!

Mine:
CD 1 Felix Draeseke:

Symphonic Andante for Cello and Orchestra;
Violin Concerto in E minor (orchestrated by Wolfgang Müller-Steinbach, not yet published).

Based on the recent releases of the works for piano and orchesta, all three cds should be dedicated to the symphonies and other orchestral works (w/o organ) by Charles Marie Widor.

[allison]

Dora Bright Piano Concerto
Rosalind Ellicott Piano Concerto
with orchestral fillers from either

[fr8nks]

Boxed set of Adolfs Skulte's 9 Symphonies

Boxed set of Arturs Grinups' 9 Symphonies

[Jimfin]

Opera and choral works are underrepresented in the recording catalogues, so I'd say any pre-Grimes British operas (especially those of Stanford, Mackenzie, Holbrooke or Boughton), and any unrecorded choral works, Stanford, Parry, Mackenzie, Holbrooke...

[mikehopf]

The Violin Concertos of Kalliwoda; Litolff and the other Goldmark ( the unrecorded concerto... not the other Goldmark)

[Christopher]

Of course, they may well be watching - so do keep the suggestions coming!
