Sarah Leonard 1953-2024

We are saddened to learn of the death of soprano Sarah Leonard renowned for peforming English contemporary songs.

In 1999 Sarah recorded an album of songs by Franz Lehár, not her usual repetoire. The album is still available on Spotify

Beulah quoted

"The Beulah record label has always been one of the most idiosyncratic, and therefore perhaps most interesting, of reissue marques. While the basic character of Beulah remains the same as in its Compact Disc days, the range of its present catalogue, driven now by the ease of downloading, has been extended in remarkable fashion. Browsing the Beulah catalogue is now rather like being in a 78rpm record shop: there are plenty of recordings of short pieces available to whet your appetite for either repertoire or artist, while at the same time there are numerous full length works available if you wish to consolidate your collection with, for instance, major symphonies. All of Beulah's transfers, as might be expected of a distinguished reissue label, are of very high quality." David Patmore writing in Classical Recordings Quarterly

November

Many music lovers miss the sound from vinyl pressings. Many others have yet to discover how great the sound can be. Most of our albums are mastered from vinyl LP pressings and earlier recordings (generally before 1953) from 78 rpm discs. It is our ability to recreate, in the digital age, the sound from the disc era that many of our customers find most enjoyable.

Unlike modern digital recordings tracks in our albums do contain some distortion, and the occasional surface noises, but for many listeners these "defects" are soon forgotten.

Our albums are available from many streaming sites.

Sir Adrian Boult and the BBC Symphony Orchestra

The BBC Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1930 as the first full time contract orchestra in Britain. Sir Adrian Boult conducted with the orchestra until he reached the grand old age of 60, at which point the BBC required him to retire.

Sidonie Goosens the orchestra's harpist for 50 years, recalled "The orginal orchestra nautally chaged its presonnel over the years after the war, and it was when Sir Adrian left us that everything seemed to change. The orhestra was his child - only just come of age."

We have gathered recordings of Sir Adrian conducting the BBCSO during his twenty years as their conductor. You can listen to them here
