Camilla Wicks also has a fantastic recording of the Sibelius (which has, unfortunately, been forgotten) but I think it's out of print. I am glad Decca decided to include the memorable Glazunov in its Stokowski release. I was not aware of it.

Decca just released (1/2018) a Stokowski box-set of 23 discs containing the live Glazunov.

It took place in London's ROYAL FESTIVAL HALL, not in the Royal Albert Hall. I know: I was there.patrick.hphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08429667533227065513noreply@blogger.com
