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

Hi Richard,

It's always worth doing a search first...

"Ah!, grasshopper, this is how you learn!!"

Tks for the hint (and diplomacy!]

Cheers

I am asking here if anyone living near Westminster Library willing to volunteer to take photos of any of the PCs, particularly PC2. This is due to the lack of staffs in the library, they couldn't provide anything useful at the time being. Please discuss with me privately, labor charge is possible.
