I like the RWW concerto very much, and I will try to listen to the Dynamic
Triptych!

This composer is not very well known outside the UK.  But I will certainly
try out the Marco Polo recording:

>Howells - Hymnus Paradisi

Actually, I like Howells string music better...  I should add his beautiful
Suite to my list!

>Holbrooke - The Raven

I often hear about this British composer...  I was interested in the Marco
Polo recording of his orchestral works, but someone told me that the music
was poorly played.

>Sorabji - Opus Clavicembalisticum

Sounds interesting but it's a very long work:

I'm a bit scared to buy this!

>Truscott - Elegy

Can you tell me more about this composer? I suppose he's British:-)
