Ok so years ago (1995) we were touring the North East and stopped off at Durham Cathedral where an orchestra were rehearsing for a concert. I caught about minute and a half of the piece but cannot identify it.

I have a theory  *g* that it could Vaughan Williams, or another English composer or possibly Scandinavia/Eastern European of the 20th Century. Doesn't narrow it down much. Shazzam has failed, google doesn't find any archive records of music played at a concert during that year although I can find entries which confirm there were some concets in August.

Halp!  I'd really love to find it and buy it complete  this. .

ETA:  I ended putting it on Youtube and someone who subscribed to me (I think the other classical vids were probably why) knew straight away 'Rimsky-Korsakov - Russian Easter Overture Op 36'   So my hunch was kinda right as it is very east European ;-)
