Ross Harris eh ::)  Where do Naxos find these composers ;D

Basil Moeran and Hermione Brian aren't bad either.

In the case of Ross Harris, I'm going to venture a guess and say that they found him in New Zealand.

Yes...you are quite right :-[

I have no business even implying that this composer's music is not worth recording :)

My heartfelt apologies to Mr. Ross Harris. If his music is anything like that of his fine compatriot Douglas Lilburn it certainly WILL be worth hearing :)

Very much looking forward to the Max symphonies. How ludicrous that the symphonies of the Master of the Queen's Music are not currently available for listening

Quite so. It's cost me a small fortune to acquire second-hand copies of symphonies 2 and 3!

I expect Rudolf Radecke isn't (for those who've even heard of Robert Radecke). But anyway.

Symphony No.7 is available in the British Music Downloads section on this site.

I was lucky to enough to have acquired Nos. 1-6 when they were available on the Collins label and No.8 "Antarctic Symphony" from MaxOpus-Maxwell Davies's website which, tragically, closed down when the composer was beset by financial "mismanagement" by those he trusted but is now back up and running :)
