Beecham - All Mozart Concert 1947 (reup)




A rare (unpublished, I think) All Mozart Concert with Beecham's second wife at the piano + broadcast announcements and brief intros to each work by Sir Thomas.

Btw, The RPO gave his first concert in 1946 (sept 15).
So, one of the oldest documents of STB on the podium of his latest "creature".

The Magic Flute, overture
Divertimento in D Major K. 131
Piano Concerto n. 19 in F Major K. 459 (*)
Le Nozze di Figaro, overture

Betty Humby Beecham, piano (*)

I think your blog is fantastic!
So many fascinating, unusual things. Long may you continue to delight the many who read this blog.
I am, however, having some problems:
Having thoroughly enjoyed the Jochum Schubert 9, I thought I'd have a look at some of your other Jochum downloads. I downloaded both the NYPO and the Boston ones but for some reason the cue files did unpack properly - for both they looked as though they were unpacking in that the program said it was processing them, but then, when I had expected it to list the tracks, it just went blank with nothing listed.
Secondly please could you do something with the Beecham Mozart April 28 1947 listing. Unlike some of the other Zippyfiles this comes up in my browser as "Forbidden" - both the Jochum ones didn't.
Finally, I'm sure the download of the Markevitch Pathétique is mono.
Many, many thanks - and please keep on with your intriguing and rewarding work.
