Again, Cowen's Symphony benefits greatly from the release of the CD: the music now thunders threateningly as it should.

I'm much more favourably disposed towards Cowen's 5th now that I've had a chance to listen to it more carefully. It's a fine piece - more gaunt and serious in general than one is accustomed to with him. And I've got to say that the BBC Concert Orchestra make a fine job of it under John Andrews.
