And then, I'm afraid to say that I'm not much for broadning my Classical horizons - too boring unless it get peppered by some Rock and maybe Jazz and Folk. Embarrassed

Not to worry. You are familiar with prog and maybe this thread will broaden your classical horizons too. Smile

Yes, I'm certainly familiar with Prog, but I need to be familiar with Classical Music too to be able to tell which Classical composers I hear mostly in Prog. Tongue

It's been over forty years since I saw Escape from New York at the local movie theater in Nottingham, so I barely remembered the soundtrack, until now. Smile

I'd rather forget the sequel Escape from Los Angeles though. Tongue

The second album of Novalis has a transcription of the second movement of Anton Bruckner's 5th Symphony; pretty awesome for me as Bruckner is my favourite composer.
