 * I cannot trace this recording with a preliminary Google search. Was it released commercially? If so, what was the record number and label. Verbcatcher (talk) 21:42, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

Walter Goehr
Was there never a recording conducted by Walter Goehr, who certainly edited the Vespers and performed them for the first time in Britain?Delahays (talk) 10:04, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I have had a look and failed to find one. It isn't listed by Discogs, who list 297 of his recordings. He made a BBC broadcast of the Vespers so the BBC may have a recording, but I have found no indication that this was ever released commercially. Verbcatcher (talk) 00:58, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

Yes - you are right, I'm afraid. Even after the York performance under Goehr, the BBC habitually wiped its tapes, and they wouldn't have used them in 1946 or 1947. I must have been thinking about the controversy of the early 1950s over the edition used by Grischkat for the Vox recording, which I remember hearing as a student, when it was new.
