I found the sheet music and have been working on a few numbers. I've never heard of any orchestrated versions of the VF's and I wonder if you're still willing to share your mp3's? Thanks much!

Will, you didn't leave your email address, but should you ever swing by this blog again - do let me know and I'll send you the mp3s. They're very beautiful indeed.

Unfortunately I don't have the setup at present to do so. I'm struck too that we should share similar tastes (the 2nd symphony is my favourite too, I bought the EMI Classics box of complete symphonies and tone poems a few months back - 8 CDs for a miniscule amount of money, must give it some more listens). Thank you for your kind words. It's gratifying to write something like this post and have someone all these months later find it interesting enough to post a comment.
