I just received a wave file of the 20+ year old Marco Polo recording of Lajtha's 3rd and 4th Symphonies along with his 2nd Suite and found it quite enjoyable. I was intrigued with the 3rd Symphony which is really a soundtrack score to the film for "Murder in the Cathedral."  I've not seen the film and I understand it is next to impossible to get. A nice new discovery for me.

His string quartets are all now on CD too as are other works. He may no longer be right for this forum though? (Not of course a reflection of my opinion of his music.)
