Hello

[Artran]

Eduard Tubin? 

Not only Tubin, but also Cyrillus Kreek, Kaljo Raid, Ester Magi, Veljo Tormis, Lepo Sumera, René Eespere, Erkki-Sven Tüür, Helena Tulve and others :-)

Well, you have listened to more Estonian composers than I, even though I spent almost two years in Tallinn

I'm a completionist. It's a curse, sometimes ;-)

[Karl Henning]

I can well believe it!

That's a nice place to be 'stuck' in...

[Karl Henning]

Charming little town.  I do wish I had spent a little more time in Tartu and Pärnu, though.

Greetings, Jan of the Czech Republic!

Allow me to recommend a Bohemian composer: Jan Kalliwoda!

and

[asin]B01M4KPBOT[/asin]

which contains the Symphony #1, the Violin Concertino #1, and the Introduction and Variations for Clarinet and Orchestra

AND...

[asin]B00WVR1S38[/asin]

which contains the Violin Concertino #5, and Overtures #3, ,7 and 10 which are like compact symphonies!

Nothing heard by him yet. Romatic period is somewhat out of my scope now, but I'll definitely get to him in the future.

I'm disappointed to find out that you strongly dislike Schoenberg 

Ha! I "strongly dislike" Webern even more

Welcome to the forum, I'm vice chancellor of the contemporary section of this place. 

Who's the chancellor, then?

[Artran]

I'm a HUGE Webern fan too, he's a composer always on rotation for me.
Check out the (not visited enough) Webern thread: http://www.good-music-guide.com/community/index.php/topic,6965.100.html

Not just chancellor, we've got a whole worldwide company if you're into this kind of stuff. There are numerous recent threads on contemporary music for you to enjoy too

When I heard his Op. 1 long time ago, it was like being struck by a sledgehammer to the head. Everything change than. I love his aphoristic, dense, crystalline style of his later compositions even more.

I've peeped inside many of those threads already before my registration. I think I'm in the right company here ;-)

Ummm..yeah. You're more like the vice president of the Armchair Conductors Collective. That seems to suit you more.

You are indeed.

You are in good company here
