WALTON Symphony #1
WIKLUND Piano Concerto #1 in E minor, Op. 10
WOOD, H. "Apollo" Overture

Lots of good stuff here.  I guess what really stands out from this
list are the orchestral works.  The Walton and Holmboe first symphonies,
Prokofieff's second violin concerto, Ives' "Unanswered Question", Roussel's
fourth symphony, Chavez's second, Barber's "Music for a Scene from
Shelley" and on and on.  But there's also a lot of good chamber
music as well.  Should be plenty here to fill several concerts.
