COLLECTOR's
CORNER
Collector's
Corner aims to become
the Internet's central
resource for the trade
and discussion of live
concert and opera performances
not otherwise commercially
available on disc. It
is for collectors who
wish to swap (no selling
is permitted) with other
collectors rare, historic
and
contemporary performances.
It functions in the same
way as any standard bulletin
board. Readers simply
post lists of recordings
they wish to swap and
wait. The board will remain
unmoderated.

One hates to harp on about
this sort of thing, but
in all my concert going
years I have never seen
a conductor so discomfited
or an orchestra so put
off – understandably so...

Brahms

flailing, and frothing

his clothes, and frightening

Shostakovich's works were
premiered and recorded
in Estonia by the conductor
Roman Matsov. This was
to ensure availability
of Shostakovich's works
for posterity should they
be be supressed in the
Soviet Union. This priceless
collection, in the hands
of the son, Mark Matsov,
is now endangered. Read
