The new Symphony No.5 has been commissioned from John Pickard by John Grimshaw, the Chairman of the Havergal Brian Society. John Pickard dedicated his String Quartet No.5 to John Grimshaw but the latter's reciprocity is an act of amazing generosity :)

As for quieter than No.2.........I doubt it; the new symphony has three timpanists with four drums each ;D

That is very nice and I am a big fan of John Pickard so this sounds tantalizing.
