OK, I listened to this albeit via jumping around quite a bit. The offstage brass sound pretty poor at the start of the orchestral postlude near the end of Part II - what happened? Eshcenbach's tempo for the 'postlude' is so slooooooow that he's killing off trumpet players left and right. Good tam-tam smashes though. Still, he conjures up strange tempo relationships throughout Part II. I do wish there were some pirates of his Philadelphia M8 floating around.
