Thanks for this link :)  I didn't know Mr Holland's work before now. I spent a rewarding hour listening to the clips on his site. Some of the opera stuff I heard is really first-rate, and deserves a professional stage production.  I particularly liked the word-setting in English, and the fresh and interesting dramatic ideas of his libretti :)

Thanks Toby

I hate the sounds of virtual orchestra, but must confess I listened for several minutes.
Would like to hear both his symphonies
