    Thanks.

    There's an Amazon download for 18 bucks. I guess I'll pop for that. (I have Litanies, and of course, I'm aware through others that Goeyvaerts was important, even if he's not too well known any more.)

    It's a pity that most of Goeyvaerts albums are so expensive to buy in hard copy. It's always interesting reading the liner notes and getting some background information on the composer/work

    Welcome LeeRain. Prometheus is a wonderful work, especially the last 3-4 minutes.

    I've listened Elgar's cello concerto.
