Exactly. It's also permissible to go to sleep during Parsifal, by the way...

... provided that you don't applaud at the end.

I'd still like to hear his organ solo music (see IMSLP) but that can be another topic if any.

It's the same music in the same performance, and you thought it bore. Why would you buy it? I'll content myself with the broadcast recording, which is more than enough.

Alan Howe

Why indeed. A misplaced sense of 'maybe I was wrong and ought to support the project'?

It should probably be removed from our Downloads section, should it not, per policy??? Presto Classical has it available 5 November '21.

Thank you, Eric! I removed the post.

Alan is mostly correct but I believe he misses the peaceful beauty of the second movement, "Die Ankündigung des Engels." The ending of this movement in in particular has that cadence of tenderness and grandeur in the last minute or so. I will concede that this and the orchestral interlude are the only bright spots in this otherwise dull and long work.
