Albert Roussel's op 52, for starters...  for strings only, as are at
least two of Miaskovsky's three and the one of Laszlo Lajtha's, whch
I believe is a straight transcription of a string quartet.  Nicholas
Berezowsky [his op 17; I think I have a full score somewhere here].  The
others in my score-and-record database have been mentioned.  I have no
immediate reference, but I think Moisei Vainberg did one, probably for
strings only.  Down among the Czechs:  Vitezslava Kapralova:  Vojenska
Sinfonietta [Military Sinfonietta] Vaclav Trojan:  Sinfonietta armoniosa
From Sweden:  Dag Wiren's op 7 From Denmark:  Knudage Riisager's op 46
From the USA:  Wallingford Riegger's op 73 From Imperial Russia:
Rimsky-Korsakov:  Sinfonietta on Folk Tunes op 31 [surely earlier than
Chadwick]
