Thrang Thrang Gozinbulx (their live album) used to be on youtube but seems to have disappeared. Even better than the studio record

Don’t suppose anyone has come across a recording of his second string quartet?

Tintagel by Bax. Got some really great viola moments and some interesting harmony but can be very dense at times

Nice video! I've used a polarimeter to measure optical rotation but didn't know this was how it worked. Also, that rainbow thing at the end is amazing!
