Description
I AM A PROFESSIONAL CLASSICAL MUSICIAN AND I HAVE BEEN PLAYING FOR A LONG TIME ( CELLO ). I HAVE AMASSED A HUGE CLASSICAL COLLECTION OVER THE YEARS, MAINLY CELLO AND VIOLIN - INCLUDING THE PREMIUM ARTISTS ( YOU ALL KNOW WHO THEY WILL BE. JM, JS, NM, MR, ME, JDP, LK ). YOU CAN FIGURE THOSE OUT YOURSELVES. I HAVE INVESTED HUGE SUMS OF MONEY IN MY COLLECTION SO REST ASSURED YOU ARE BUYING FROM A PERSON WHO NOT ONLY COLLECTS, BUT HAS A PASSION FOR CLASSICAL MUSIC, AND I WILL HAVE PERFORMED THE MAJORITY OF THE RECORDINGS ( EXCEPT FOR PIANO SOLOS ).
ALL THE RECORDS WILL BE CLEANED ON A MOTH MK 2 AND SENT WITH STIFFNERS. I WILL PLAY GRADE THE MAJORITY OF MY LISTING ON AN AVID ACUTUS REFERENCE TURNTABLE, BUT I'M NOT PARTING WITH MY ENTIRE COLLECTION -- YET!. I WILL SEND EVERY PARCEL RECORDED / SIGNED FOR AND THE POSTAGE PRICES WILL BE ACCURATE AND NOT A MADE UP FIGURE. I'M SELLING AS I WANT TO START FUNDING FOR MY FUTURE. THERE WILL BE NO SET PATTERN TO MY LISTINGS AND REST ASSURED I HAVE EVERYTHING. I WILL NOT REPLY TO ANY MESSAGES REQUESTING LISTS, VISITS, ETC AS I'M AN EXTREMELY PRIVATE PERSON, AND MY INTENTION IS TO SELL ONLY FOR THE NEXT 12 MONTHS. AS A SIDE NOTE, MY GUILTY PLEASURE IS BILLY JOEL. WHY WOULD A CLASSICAL PERSON LIKE BILLY JOEL YOU MIGHT ASK. I JUST THINK HE IS AN EXCEPTIONAL MUSICIAN WITH STRONG MELODIES. I'M ALSO A HUGE COLLECTOR OF ACID FOLK FROM THE LATE 60'S TO MID 70'S SO I DO KNOW MY STUFF. I READ ALOT OF MUSICAL AUTOBIOGRAPHIES SO I'M WELL VERSED IN THE HISTORY OF ARTISTS. SO THERE WE GO. THAT IS ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW.
I have played this a number of times and the Scherzo is very interesting for the cellos. A very Elgar type sound in my opinion but on the whole this is a nice symphony which he revised 22 years after the first completion. I bought this in 1991 ( I have a record of where and when I have purchased my records ) and bought it in Harold Moore's London. ( possibly the premier classical record shop at the time )
Matrix Number 1D - 3D.
VINYL
The surface has a a few very light non sounding hairlines, which is more noticeable in strong light, but nothing which impacts the sound. I tested it and it played perfectly with just the odd dust pop in quiet spells, but on the whole perfect. No matter how well you clean your records and the machine you use, the chances of eliminating all pops is unlikely, though not impossible. I have bought MINT SEALED records and when I played them they had pops. The spindles have the faintest of wear.
SLEEVE
The front sleeve is laminated with signs of creasing, but no bubbling. There is tanning to the sleeve opening edge and there are no splits or tears.
The rear of the sleeve has usual discolouration due to aging rather than staining.
IF THERE IS ANY PROBLEM WITH THE RECORD PLEASE LET ME KNOW AND WE WILL WORK TOGETHER TO RECTIFY.
POSTAGE
FREE POSTAGE TO ALL UK ADDRESSES. ALL ITEMS SENT 2ND CLASS RECORDED, REGARDLESS OF HOW MUCH YOU BUY.
OVERSEAS, YOUR PRICES WILL INCLUDE SIGNED AND TRACKED. IF YOU BUY MORE THAN ONE I WILL OFFER DISCOUNT. DO NOT PAY UNTIL I SEND AN AMENDED INVOICE OR ASK ME HOW MUCH IT WILL COST BEFORE YOU BID
