Naxos label with new lower prices on eClassical

[austinpop]

eClassical just announced lower prices on Naxos label recordings on their website. Here is the email I received below.

 

Dear friends, we have been working with the people at Naxos for a long time and we sure like them a lot. Now we've been talking with them about our prices and after long talks (well...) we have reduced the prices on all our Naxos albums. Prices are down with almost 50%.   You can find all their albums here: Naxos albums at eClassical We won't sit still.  We make it happen!

Let's use this thread to identify "cheap" Naxos recordings that you would recommend, either for exceptional SQ, musicality or both.

Naxos started as a budget label. I am not sure why they kept their download prices high. Finally their downloads seems reasonably priced. Thanks.

The website doesn't seem to have much of what I was going to suggest...

 

Off the top of my head I really like those Tintner's Bruckner recordings that I own; you can buy the whole set in a box:

I'd also add Delius' Violin Concerto by Tinter/Djokic and Field's Piano Concertos and Nocturnes by Benjamin Frith.

I haven't checked that site or bought Naxos for a very long  time, but my recommendations from what is , was, or might now be in Naxos catalogue:

 

Kalinnikov  Symphonies 

Balakirev Symphonies (#1 is a real favourite of mine, the andante is pure OTT romanticism) 

Myaskovsky Symphonies

David Diamond Symphony 2 etc 

Elgar/Payne Symphony 3 

Armstrong Gibbs Symphonies 1 and 3 ( I have in Marco Polo , don't know if now in Naxos catalogue)
