Quite a lot of that CD is available to listen to on YT: here's a link to one part -

You're right, this is the CD I am talking about. And here's the Bolero I was referring at, from the Suite Andaluza from 1942, please draw your own conclusion:

BTW, the first three movements are very much in the style of the two ballets from Manuel de Falla, sounding almost like free variations on some of its themes, so Lehmberg clearly allowed himself to be inspired by well-known sources. Let's call him 'eclectic', his 1959 Symphony very much in the style of Brahms. At the same time, his music is attractive enough to reward repeated listening.

… music is not only an `entertainment’, nor a mere luxury, but a necessity of the spiritual if not of the physical life, an opening of those magic casements through which we can catch a glimpse of that country where ultimate reality will be found.  RVW, 1948
