Glad to see a Volume 2 come along so quickly. Glad also at the inclusion of the previously unrecorded (and "tougher") Symphony No.2 and the unrecorded Serenade.
Absolutely flabbergasted at the inclusion of the Partita which Hickox recorded for the first Chandos "Volume One". Surely Chandos should have taken that into account and asked Wilson to record one of the many other short orchestral works previously unrecorded. To select at random, "Zodiac" for orchestra at 17 minutes is exactly the same length as the Partita. Such completely unnecessary duplication!!

(Anybody like to employ me as A&R consultant? I promise to stay within budget ;D ;D)
