If you've heard the Wit version of the Threnody on Naxos, you might have
your doubts... i certainly did: in passages, i was reminded astonishingly
of the Vishnu symphony. But that's waht makes Wit an exciting conductor:
although a student of Penderecki, he's looked at the scores as though he
never heard a bar of them in his entire life; & come up with a powerfully
logical solution to their challenges.
All the best,
