I bought Blomstedt's Nielsen symphonies on Seán's recommendation some time ago and I can confirm that they really are very good....even if I do not understand all of the later music, the performances are wonderful.

Have you listened to the Bassoon Concertos Fergus? I have a recording of them and I find that instrument an unusual but interesting one.
