of Charles Stanford's music is an exact duplicate (same narration, music, etc) of an earlier Stanford COTW, or a new one? Thanks :)

I like the quintets, 3rd piano trio (apparently once very often played) and violin sonatas especially myself. Thanks for the recommendation!

(And his once-popular piano quartet - I have the Thorofon version- appeals too :) )

(which is why, apologies to hangmen everywhere, it's not the idea, it's the execution. There's only so many ideas in music, literature, art... but many ways to see them through.)

(apologies for banality and horrible punmanship.)

ntm Brahms 4/ii's opening bar overheard various places throughout Stanford symphony 3/iii...
Re Buttner 3, as the work is thoroughly PD, I could phone-photo the "offending" pages and upload scans to an account if I figure out which to do.

If that's a response to that article, none of us wrote it...

Back when I was attempting to compose, I remember hearing one of Beethoven's cello works in concert, had never heard it before, rondo tune stuck. I soon forgot who wrote it and some years later (just) started  writing the opening of a piano quintet on a very similar theme, thinking it mine (after checking it wasn't by the composers who it brought to mind. Then I heard the Beethoven on the radio and that was that. So yep.

another, this time post-Mahler 4 unlike my other examples, example is Melartin 4 (1912) (well-ok, 3 solo voices, but you mentioned Nielsen 3 which has 2.)

There are certainly examples before Mahler 4 without calling works symphony that don't have that title or subtitle (and the Ring is not for -solo voice- and orchestra at any rate.
Bantock's Christus symphony, published in 1900 (the year Mahler began his 4th), also qualifies. (Sibelius' Kullervo (1891-2) has chorus, so not so much...)

Thanks indeed.

I have the score of symphony no.3 in D-flat major (finale in, and ends in, C# minor) on my table borrowed from U. Houston. (edited)

at least in the US one can download the Sterling recording of Hermann's symphonies for $9.49. I am very much a fan of the rather stark 2nd.

Actually, in the Wellesz and similar works the 3rd movement obviously -is- the finale...

Composers & Music / Re: Reger vs Senfter: a comparison
Wednesday 13 March 2024, 23:11
I would think a comparison with a middle-period Reger work, eg violin sonata 4 in C or 5 in f#, which are substantially more "rebarbative" than sonatas 8 or 9, might also be enlightening...
#15
That unintended 3 movement form - Moderate Scherzo Slow- led to successors itself (think Egon Wellesz' first and 6th-9th.)
