How about this release? https://forgottenrecords.com/en/thirion-symphonie-n-2-thierac-symphonie-normande-eugene-bigot-fr1741
This is good news, I've been curious about his orchestral music.
Will they fall within our area of interest, I wonder? The Thierac in particular is well outside it, chronologically at least. Anyone know these works?
Well, he (edit: sorry, Thirion!) composed two symphonies at least- in Ef published in 1912, in B minor published in 1923. Maybe there's already a recording (maybe this recording) of no.2 somewhere I can link to. I've only directly seen his early chamber music.
Thirion symphony no.2 (1913) (https://youtu.be/QNOVUSI3FZ8) on youtube. (Possibly originally uploaded to our own downloads section, that rings a bell.)
And I think it is the same recording as the one on Forgotten Records, Eric.

Should give an idea of his style. Haven't listened yet.
The Thirion's very chromatic, almost intractably so, I'd say.
Here's an appreciative review at MusicWeb:

which reminded me that two of the chamber works I mention -have- actually been recorded.
