And Marmite for breakfast it seems! Listening to the Cpo and Dutton cds of his orchestral music I have to admit I do like this music! Ramshackle,wierd,eccentric,but to me what collecting unusual,off-the-beaten-track repertoire is all about. Also,I think the Cello Concerto holds together better than I thought. I don't even usually like Cello Concertos,either! Whether the Fourth symphony is anything more than a suite in disguise,the second movement really does it for me! I think it could be played on it's own. At one point Holbrooke throwing all caution to the wind with a gorgeous passage that strikes me as pure Hollywood. The third movement reverts to the idiom of the first movement,however! :( Intriguing,but the final movement goes on too long!
I might listen to some Sibelius later! ;D
