This musical area is not a major one for me, but I do have a PAN disc
devoted to Wellesz; it contains a piano concerto, divertimento, and three
piano pieces.  So far, I find the works interesting, but I haven't formed
any final opinion yet.  They definitely have a strong romantic idiom.

I'm looking forward to hearing the new Cerha chamber music disc on CPO.
It just hasn't shown up on my screen yet.
