I tend to listen to new-to-me compositions multiple times, being a bit slow. The last two days I've been marvelling over and over at Tubin's Symphony 1, as performed by the Estonian National Symphony under Volmer. The musical materials are quasi-modal -- dorian, generally -- and thus contain less contrast (or highlights) than later works by Tubin. But what he does with them is remarkable. A born symphonist, unlike any other. 

yes.... I would have to agree... I also like the first movement of Sym #3... esp. on the drive into work going 80mph/100km on the "tollway or turnpike" as some call it in Texas.
