Here is my realisation of Emánuel Moór's 5th symphony in A minor, Op.53B (1901)

The work is unpublished and obviously unperformed.

The movements are as follows:

1. Allegro moderato (Maestoso)

2. Adagio

3. Scherzo - presto

4. Allegro moderato

The last page has this note after the final bar: Hotel Fürstenhof, Frankfurt 10th January 1901

Marvellous, Martin! All work on Moór's music is to be very warmly welcomed. Please excuse my minor adjustment of the spelling of the composer's name.

Many thanks indeed for this work, Martin. I enjoyed your realisation very much. It is an accomplished work, though not IMHO a particularly distinguished one. It has some attractive orchestration, but is short on memorable melodic content. Nevertheless, as I said, a most enjoyable listen - and I have a feeling my initial impression may improve on further hearings. I am extremely grateful to have been given, through you, an opportunity to hear this symphony. As Alan says, all work on Moor's music is always exceedingly welcome.
