There's never in Cooke's music anything like those inspired and captivating "visionary tangents" one so frequently comes upon in a Brian Symphony. Workmanlike and always pretty reliably dull is how I myself would describe it.  Could Symphony No.6 possibly be any different?
I fear not. All too much earnest and well-meaning sub-Hindemith, I sorry to have to say - and without Hindemith's sometimes engaging qualities...
