Frederick
Delius (1862-1934), although a direct contemporary of Elgar
in England, produced music which couldn't be more different. Throughout
his life his chief influence was nature, whether in England, France (where
he eventually settled), Florida or Norway. He had a huge talent for sensuous
orchestration, and by the time of his death was regarded by many as perhaps
the greatest composer of recent British history.
These
four recordings highlight superbly his technique and ability and, superbly
recorded by Decca, are handled with great expertise by conductor Anthony
Collins, himself building a reputation at the time as a composer. They
complement, too, our Delius Society Volume
One recordings.
Our MP3 files are encoded at at a constant rate of 320kbps for all issues since mid-August 2008, and using the LAME encoder at high variable bitrate settings for older issues.
Each recording is presented as a single, long MP3 which can be split using the CUE sheet at the bottom of the page, automatically adding track titles and other tag information.
Most modern CD writing programs such as Nero and Burrrn can write these files directly to CD with all track information added using MP3+CUE - see our tutorial
Alternatively a cue splitter program can automatically cut and name the MP3 into individual MP3 tracks
There are also media players which use the MP3+CUE system, allowing gapless playback of all long MP3 files - essential for opera and many other classical works
