Egmont"
The ABC Classic 100 is a poll of listener favourites i.e. what people like, and not a plebiscite on 'greatness', for which there is no right or preferred answer, anyway, because no two people are ever likely to agree. It's just a bit of fun which makes for entertaining listening over a June weekend. This year over 62,000 votes were cast for 413 works, with roughly an equal gender divide among the voters. The only real surprise to me was Fidelio at #20, six places behind Für Elise! And for the record, my favourite Egmont is Szell/VPO.
