Description: Presumably this is on Epoch since the Rubbra and Berkeley still needed to be licensed from Decca and since the Reizenstein is unavailable otherwise. His 1937 Prologue... is a sonata-sized work of just over 25 minutes whose 1944 premiere helped establish his reputation as one of the younger generation of English composers at that time.
