This review is from: Delius: Paris; Brigg Fair; Eventyr; Irmelin; La Calinda (Audio CD)
A good selection of the most popular works of Delius at a fair price. The quality of the recording is very good.

Excellent,
By Sungu Okan "Can Okan" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Delius: Paris; Brigg Fair; Eventyr; Irmelin; La Calinda (Audio CD)
This is a must have for any admirers of British Music or Delius.I think, especially, his great symphonic poem "Eventyr" is the best track of this CD. The theme of "La Calinda" was taken from Delius' first successful work "Florida Suite" The performances are very good. I think, these are among the best performances of New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, and they're actually a very good orchestra. (Another successful recording of is, the Symphonies of Stravinsky, available on Naxos). Highly recommended. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful:

Nothing really wrong with these accounts, but they cannot stand up to the competition,
By G.D. - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Delius: Paris; Brigg Fair; Eventyr; Irmelin; La Calinda (Audio CD)
There is nothing really wrong with this collection of Delius favorites from the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra under Myer Fredman. The trouble is that with collections from e.g. Mackerras and Barbirolli available at comparable prices (not to speak of Beecham, but I have to admit that I personally really require stereo sound in this repertoire) it isn't really competitive. First of all, the sound quality of this disc is nothing to write home about, being distant and somewhat boomy. Compared to the competition this version of Eventyr also sounds a little lackluster and bland. Brigg Fair and Paris, on the other hand, go rather better, accomplished and atmospheric playing but without being exceptional. I guess the final verdict, then, must be that you won't go seriously wrong with this issue, but there are better ways to spend your money and time.
