>By the way, anyone for Holmboe's symphonies?
(smirk) I've got the complete BIS cycle. Fabulous composer. A virtuoso
contrapuntalist who never rubs your nose in it. In other words, the
counterpoint contributes to the emotional context, rather than exiting
as a kind of "can you top this?" I've reviewed some Holmboe on the
http://www.classical.net/ site, including a collection of his prose.
