I'm a couple of slices short, I guess, but Potter, Cowen and Mackenzie add those slices. I'm not so sure about Holbrooke, though...

Well, three out of four slices ain't bad!

 :D

One of the thing's I find intriguing about Draeseke is he seems to start off well (the opening of No 3 is arresting) and then after a couple of bars seems to run out of steam! (I can almost imagine him muttering,"What do I do now?! :( ;D") He also seems to pick up steam in the last few minutes (the ending of the third really is quite thrilling! If it was an Lp I'd have been picking up the needle and putting it down near the label!)

His best effort is certainly No.3, which has some striking gestures - but are they any more than gestures? Hmmm...
