This third volume didn't get Serebrier back, but the other conductor, Richard Bernas stepped in. Sorry, I don't know much about him. Only from the memory, he conducted a ballet score, Clavigo, by Gabriel Yared, for Paris Opera Ballet. There was a DVD release on TDK several years back. If you like Yared but not a ballet fan, you might want to find it.

About this third one, "THE PHILADELPHIA STORY: Suite" was mistakenly labelled as 13'55", which would really turn you on. However, the track is just 3'55". The good thing is a 20 min suite of Lenny Bernstein's On the Waterfront. The other pity about this CD is "Around the world in 80 days". Only Overture is here. I hope they recorded a lengthy suite as Stanley Black would have done.

All three volumes in FLAC plus artworks can be found here:

325mb+363mb+298mb+20mb(booklet)

Enjoy your weekend and enjoy listening! Try to find the differences between these new releases and the golden standard, Gerhardt's Classic Film Scores.

A further note about ripping. For these albums, I went back to rip as whole track image + cue. The reason is the vol 1 is at relatively low volume, although EAC indicated peak at 98.8%. It's clearly showing from the FLAC size is smaller than Vol2, whereas the time is longer. I thought the whole track might be handy for others if wanted to normalise the volume. I did "test and copy", you can easily find the log files indicating no errors at all. You'll also find all the soloists and arrangers listed in the cue file.

I got them in 2010. Just checked the RPO shop, they are still on special!

There are no separate booklet files posted ?.

Yes it is. If you cklick the mediafire link you get a folder containing 4 download files. One is the booklet file:
RPO_GAH_booklets.rar (http://www.mediafire.com/?4ddic1o41kr195g)

If you click to download this file, you first get the message "try again" and after that "mediafire ist trying to repair your download" and so on. It doesen't work.

It gave me the "trying to repair your download" message at the same time as it downloaded the file.

So for me, it worked.

ok, thank you. I will try again from a different pc with different internet access with a different firewall......

I just tried, no problem from my side, even without login mediafire. Perhaps try it another time.

Thanks so much for your efforts! :)
