Yes, a very fine symphony with the slow movement being my favorite part.

I haven't been able to tear myself away from von Weber's Flute Trio, since I heard it last week. As neither a regular listener of the Classical Era, nor chamber music, I have surprised myself here.

I've only heard the Kremerata, but will branch out after a while.

Interesting. I don't remember this work well (in fact, I don't remember if I've ever listened to it).

BTW, do you know his Clarinet Quintet? Most people seem to listen to ones by Brahms and Mozart most of the time, but this is quite fun and inspired too.
Part of the tragedy of the Palestinians is that they have essentially no international support for a good reason: they've no wealth, they've no power, so they've no rights.
