Hi Latvian

Looking forward to downloading the Wilan. His first symphony is quite bland, but the second (which I have heard on a poor YouTube recording) is a cracker,  full of energy!

Whoops, Willan.

The YouTube performance isn't a bad one, just poor quality. A very old radio recording.

Aaagh, it's the other way round, the Symphony no.2 is quite bland, No.1, much better!

Canadian composers do not get nearly enough exposure, there are so many fine works that can be listened to on Canadian Music Centre, free to join and links to contemporary composers' websites. Thanks for the posts and downloads.
