Thanks to a comment from a video of one of the old BBC Proms intro is that I discovered such a composer and a monumental work.

That final M6 chord is stunning

[@Marlestor]

Without a doubt this is an underestimated work!
Should be more known, thanks for posting ❤️
Any chance you can share the score?
Would be great to have a closer look
Thanks!!

What a great discovery. An excellent composer

[@trueblack6760]

I had played this no. II RED when I was in High school. Surely this is difficult for us.... but it is very interesting even now.
Thank you for posting this vid with score. This is quite good idea! I do love this channel.

[@Empyreanabove]

This is a stunningly beautiful work.

[@alexmmj-poke-jules8354]

Thank you so much, I love the composer who was a student of Stanford like Holst!

[@JamesZ32100]

The first movement sounded a lot like Ryuichi Sakamoto's The Last Emperor suite ~ Beautiful~

[@pauljackson1029]

Surely the other way around

[@porkyminch5131]

Amazing, I found a composer that didn't fell to modern composer crap syndrome! Beautiful work, sounded very Elgar and Mahler like.

[@ClassicalMusicAndSoundtracks]

It's a pre-war symphony, not a post-war symphony. The people usually say that classical music has become crap after the war, but even today there are composers who write meldious classical music.

[@jacobtapianieto9655]

Technically it is (post-WW1) although it would be more precise to say that it was written between the two world wars.
