Bought this evening before film :) --
An issue of BBC Music Magazine with in addition to reviews, a cover CD that a friend had recommended, containing Elgar's 2nd symphony conducted by Sir Malcolm Sargent. Apparently not a previously-released recording, and I think... not sure?... that my friend had attended this performance at the time (or heard it on the radio), was struck in a work that maybe didn't generally get to him...
A CD of Sir Arnold Bax's first and third violin sonatas (and two movements written but later placed-in-the-drawer, once belonging to the first sonata). I've heard the first sonata, back in college, and never heard the third. In a few years the number of recordings on CD of these sonatas (not counting the newly-recorded alternate movements) has gone up from ... one each, I think (one of nos. 1 and 2, and a remastering of an LP for no. 3...) - to ... about... well, at least five or six, maybe more. Considering that the pieces are more or less unknown and the composer almost so (despite having written film music for Oliver Twist and others, and being Master of the King/Queen's Music in the 1950s - Elizabeth II became Queen during his life, in 1952), not bad.
