ah! I stand corrected (sittingly and fittingly - as it was my objection - mild - to begin with.) Thank you!

  Thanks for Symphonies by Migot, Shamokin88.
  Very interesting works!

[Dundonnell]

Thanks once again to shamokin....this time for the two Jolivet downloads.

The addition of the Jolivet Symphony No.2 certainly fills a gap in my list

Re the French/Swedish Marteau's quartet no.3 in C, op.17 (1916, published by Steingraber in 1921)- thanks! The movements are
I. Comodo (quarter=104)
II. Hymne an den Schmerz (Molto adagio, quarter=58 - Poco più andante - Tempo I. Preceded in the score by the poem Hymne à la douleur by Lamartine.)
III. Scherzo (Allegro, quarter=138 - Trio).
IV. Adagio (quarter=63) - Allegro (Mysterioso. minim=80).

Been having a good look at at least the opening pages of the score and am really looking forward to hearing this. So thanks yes

RE. Le Flem's Symphonies 2 & 3.
Thanks for both. However, both files are marked as Symphony No. 3. Are both files similar?

RE. Le Flem's Symphonies 2 & 3.
Thanks for both. However, both files are marked as Symphony No. 3. Are both files similar?

I have downloaded both: the first file, though labeled Symphony No. 3, is different from the second. Therefore I suppose that the first file links to Symphony No 2 and the second to No 3. I am sure Edward will help us to clear this soon!

Most online sources give 1957 as date of composition for No. 2.

You are correct about the Le Flem symphonies. Fortunately, MediaFire shows in small print the time at which a download began - or finished? - and knowing that I did 2 before 3, I have gone back and changed the title.

[Dundonnell]

Very many thanks for the two Le Flem symphonies, shamokin

Any interest in Boellmann's Symphonic Variations for Cello and Orchestra?

[gpdlt2010]

Thanks, shamokin!
That does it!

Any interest in Boellmann's Symphonic Variations for Cello and Orchestra?

Oh, well played that man! I would jolly well say so. Thanks!

[Dundonnell]

Aaaahhh.....I find that my performance of the Boellmann is the one by Paul Tortelier which is included in a huge boxed cd set issued by EMI of Tortelier recordings.

So....by the rules of this site.............

Very sorry, chaps

Hoist by my own petard, by the look of it!

That Dukas overture is great -- I'm baffled as to why it seems to only have one commercial recording.
