Rather more than half decent, Marco. Superb collection! Not a duffer there, imo. :thumbsup:

Very fine performances of the Debussy Syrinx for solo flute, Ravel Gaspard and the Franck violin sonata. :^
I can manage without the Faure song cycle, though.

Good to know, Jerry, as I always value your opinion. I'm no expert, so simply use my gut feeling, in terms of judging what might be worth buying, coupled of course with what my favourite composers and conductors are :)

They'll be cleaned today and played later! :cool:

Interesting music - very modern but full of references to famous classical pieces.
I then found there's a Naxos recording of 3 other symphonies by Tomas Marco, which I will be investigating.
