I was motivated to move to a symphony from a country I hadn't blogged so far, and realised that I have covered much of Europe (though not, so far, Spain and Sweden for example). So Brazil seemed a good choice. I don't recall every hearing any of Villa-Lobos's symphonies before and this one was not invidual and interesting enough apart from the beautiful slow movement. I think I should return to some of the others. I don't think the symphonies are the most famous of his works and I failed to find a video clip.
