@@johnpugh3348 John, it is very kind of you to get back to me, most don't bother unless I say something derogatory. Then you should hear some of the abuse I get :-) :-) Yes, this is indeed a good work. I think his Piano Concerto is somewhere on YT, it is a more serious exercise but still a good listen.

@@DavidA-ps1qr I have just listened to it, another gem. Wonderful

@@johnpugh3348 I'm very pleased. Although he was a world class conductor I think his compositions are neglected in today's concert halls. Some people might consider his music "old fashioned" but who cares if others enjoy it.

@@DavidA-ps1qr I came to classical music via film music. Hence my like for Korngold, Steiner, Waxman and of course John Williams.

This piece was composed in 1951, not in 1966
