Moór Symphony No.2 and PC2 in C minor

[Gareth Vaughan]

Dear Aramiarz,
I will ask one third and last time: is there any news on the Emanuel Moor recording project, or should we forget about it?

[Richard Moss]

Whilst downloading the 2nd symphony recently (which (i) I really appreciate the upload and (ii) I have not had a chance to listen to yet), I trawled the web for any information on this work and came across a site (I think Gareth is familiar with this from much earlier notes in  this thread): http://www.emanuel-und-henrik-moor-stiftung.de/Emanuel/works.shtml

As Gareth was, I believe, looking at the Westminster Library collection, I'd be interested in any alterations or omissions to give a more complete list (although it looks as if these works - tempting as they may be - are not likely to grow wings any time soon - moor's the pity (pardon the pun!)

Best wishes
