You should have lots of happy customers with a pleasant chap like you looking after them and Mozart filling the air!!!Jared wrote:....interestingly, I have been playing this box set in Reception all week at work Fergus, and have had lots of positive comments:

Very fine playing all around and I was quite taken with the Orchestral Suite No. 4 on the disc.

The touch was light alright but perhaps not as much as the Goodman and Hanover Band version. I couldnt really fault the performance in any way.fergus wrote:How did that one go Dave? What was the playing like....was it a light touch?DaveF wrote:

Symphony No.3. Arguably one of the best versions here.
