What a great and unknown gem this was, a total pleasure from beginning to end. That main thematic idea (that stentorian rising/falling two-note phrase best heard in the heroic finale, but also throughout the first movement) is utterly heraldic and stirring. I must seek out more music by this composer. Thank you for uploading it!
