Although Boult is highly regarded for his performances of British music, he was also known for his expertise in German music, including Beethoven and Brahms. Berg's \"Wozzeck\" was conducted for the first time in England by Boult, and this 1949 recording is the second performance in England, with Heinrich Nilius (baritone) as Wozzeck and Suzanne Danko singing Marie, and the cast is perfect. Boult's interest in the music of his contemporaries also extends to Stravinsky's works, and he gives a superb performance in this recording of \"Capriccio\" with the superbly skilled Australian pianist Noël Mouton-Wood.Boult also conducted the Royal Opera House Orchestra in 1965 in a performance of Vaughan Williams' Symphony No. 4, which he premiered almost 30 years earlier, and which historical recording specialist John Transky has described as \"largely dissonant and often violently explosive. is performed with great expression. Bonus tracks include a 1965 conversation between Boult and Bernard Keefe for BBC Radio, in which Keefe discusses his 19 years as principal conductor of the BBC Symphony Orchestra. Paul Bailey, who has a reputation for reissuing historical recordings, mastered the CD.
