Cross-post from WAYLT, simply to restate the quality of these SQs.

I rate David Matthews very highly. His symphonies are excellent, but his SQs are also amongst my favourite British cycles.
"A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people ... then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbour — such is my idea of happiness"
