5.0 out of 5 stars fine old performances given a new lease of life, 22 Dec 2005
By Mr. Ian A. Macfarlane "almac1975" (Fife, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I have the original LP of 'In the South' and the 78s, no less, of the Symphony ; I was delighted when these performances were reissued on CD. Boult's 'In the South' is symphonic, not programmatic or episodic, and I think it benefits from that. This was, I believe, the first piece that Boult worked on, as a young man, with the composer himself. The interludes are beautifully done. The symphony is very gritty, driving forward most excitingly, though at the end, as he nearly always did, Boult takes a fairly measured view of the grand restatement of the opening march theme. From beginning to end it is a real performance and tells us much more about the music than most. Anyway, very strongly recommended.
