A wonderful set of tracks, Mike, thanks!
My favorite so far is Spiegel Im Spiegel.  That MK2 flute always does it for me.

Great stuff here. 
I really enjoyed "Cantus..... and I'll be giving that many listens, I really found that appealing to my ear. 
And "Pavane" is very very nice. Really like what's going on there. 

This list is a like a best of selection...with many favorites. 
The organ on "Symphony 3"...wow.--- On Mon, 9/3/12, Bob Snyder <bob.snyder@cox.net> wrote:

>Mike,Many thanks for the new work and congrats on the tour de force! I was especially looking forward to Bolero, but at about 10 minutes in it stopped abruptly. This was particularly disappointing given the nature of the piece. All that suspense and no climax!I suspect that one needs something more than the standard 700 MB/80 Min CD-R as the bin file is over 800 MB. If so, it might be helpful to advise on the info page.Bob S.On 09/03/2012 11:03 AM, Mike Dickson wrote:
