Britten: Paul Bunyan: Plymouth Music Series Soloists, Chorus and Orchestra/ Brunelle. It took another dozen years for this first recording to appear, and though it is not ideal - the later version, taken from the Royal Opera production conducted by Richard Hickox on Chandos, has marginally better solo singing, and a warmer sound - Philip Brunelle's conducting catches the slightly brash, transatlantic spirit of the piece, and a good deal of its poetic charm too.
