Yes and his 3rd as well.

My first exposure was his music for organ.  It is surprising to see how
much his music was done during his lifetime.  I also like his choral music.
Some of the orchestral works like the Violin Concerto don't do much for me.

As a curious aside, I wonder if anyone else out there might have noticed
some similarity between his work "Theme in Yellow" and the Waxman score to
the film Bride of Frankenstein!
