Thankyou so much for this concert. It's always good to hear Hovhaness Symphony No.2, an American classic. But he wrote other symphonies too and PLENTY of them! Here is a fascinating article I just found on Alan Hovhaness the symphonist

So many more examples to hear, seems he was a modern day Haydn!
this is such a ponderous recording of the
Brahms......... something I'm so fond of as a piece, but it is mighty slow today!
