This Sunday the Oregon Symphony performed a concert consisting of three pieces which it had never before in its history performed. (My apologies for that seemingly Google-translated-to-English-from-German sentence). The Delius Irmelin Prelude was pleasant fare, and having a couple nice section viola melodic moments (and one big, exposed viola solo at the end, nicely played by Joël Belgique) made it ok for me, but overall, Delius has a long way to go to make it to my top 50 composers list. So, the entirety of the concert was largely made up of two very different pieces, each a challenge to perform, but both quite rewarding in their own way.
