So the second Elgar 1 on SACD from a Flemish orchestra (after Brabbins on Glossa)...

Hope they fix the spelling mistake on the cover prior to release... Unless The DEAM of Gerontius is an Elgar work I was previously unaware of!

It was pointed out to them hence the missing cover illustration.

I have listened to the prelude and it was very beautiful. A little lacking in tension perhaps. But I couldn't keep listening since the timbre of the tenor wasn't to my taste. I also listened to the first movement of the symphony which I found on first hearing to be quite good, but nothing special. Rather routine - but I only heard it once.
