Thank you Clive

From this composer I new only that he helped a former American Ambassador in writing a 'Holland Symphony'.
I always wondered how much of it was from Somtow Sucharitkul. Together with two othewr works it was released on lp in 1970s I believe. I taped the works, but the sound is horrible now; the works were not that interesting btw.

I have that LP, the American ambassador in question is J. William Middendorf II (* 1924). However, I have to admit that I really find these works (I mean the Middendorfs) pretty uninteresting indeed, composed in a very undemanding manner, basically not much more than simple melodies accompanied by similarly simple harmonies.
