So far I’m greatly enjoying the orchestration

Really wonderful! Thank you for sharing. That was an unfortunate critique of the composition. Thankfully, the piece premiered, remains, and we get to listen to it today.

Oh is yhis rver beautiful! It grabbed me from the opening melody and couple of chords. The orchestration pure Russian. Very impressive and awfully enjoyable. I hate to do comparisons but thos symphony folows more the style Borodin layed out rather than Tchaikovsky. But this is a wonderful Symphony no matter which way you spin it.

Knowing that this symphony is written by a Russian composer, I can make it make sense, but if you just played it for me, I would have guessed it was English. Lots of it sounds surprisingly like Elgar.
