Rob Barnett is in error in stating in his review of the new Chandos/Hickox recording that this is the first time that 'The Golden Goose' and 'The Morning of the Year' have appeared on disc. Hyperion released a cd with these two Choral Ballets coupled with 'King Estmere'(An Old English Ballad for Chorus and Orchestra) recorded in 1995 with the Guildford Choral Society and the Philharmonia Orchestra conducted by Hilary Davan Wetton(CDA66784). I think that this cd has been deleted but may make a reappearance on Hyperion's Helios label. I also suspect that the Hickox version may well be superior!

Both Rob and I confess to actually owning a copy of that disc! Just too many riches!
