    Henryk Gorecki / Canticum Graduum and Symphony No 3 (clearly not off the beaten track this one)
    Stanislaw Moniuszko / String Quartet No 1
    Krasimir Kyurkchiyski / Piano Concerto No 1

    All from TTN

    Then,messing around on you tube looking for more Kyurkchiyski I found 200+ off the beaten track piano concertos.
    Should keep us OTBT fans going for a while.
    Enjoy.

    Walter Abendroth, Vasif Adigezalov, Charles-Valentin Alkan, Esther Allan, Anatoli Alexandrov, William Alwyn, Fikret Amirov, Leroy Anderson, Willem Andriessen...

      And all of these were at least three times broadcast during TtN during approx the last 12-15 months.
      Moniuszko is a real regular and from Kyurkchiyski 's output we get other works too, like some of his symphonic poems.

        Ah. He of haunted house fame. Very tuneful, and the plot is suitably entertaining too.
        Haunted Manor - Straszny Dwór https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUMKu3trW3E

        The opera is on Apple Music - search for "Moniuszko Haunted" and perhaps also "Kaspszyk". I wonder if it's ever performed .... in Poland .... outside Poland?

            I am afraid there is quite a lot I certainly never have listened too (yet), and there are even composers whose names were new to me

              Goetz - Piano Concerto No.2

              Verdict,ordinary.

              BTW
              Don't bother with Alberto Semprini's Concerto Appassionato.

                What are you trying to do?

                Get us to listen to check you out!

                Hermann Goetz (1840-1876):
                Piano Trio in G minor
                Göbel-Trio Berlin

                Piano Quintet in C minor
                Göbel-Trio Berlin, (Which of these are in the trio? Kauro Konno, Hans Maile, Akira Akahoshi ,Landsverk Lois, Horst Gobel)

                I've heard worse things.

                  The two highlighted (?"highlit"?) are the Violinist and Pianist respectively, Dave, and René Forrest is the 'cellist on the Schumann recordings I know by this Trio (and on the other recordings on their Amazon "catalogue"). Akira Akahoshi is a Double Bass player, Lois Landsverk a Viola player and Kauro Konno a pianist.

                    Brahms was impressed by Goetz's works - and Goetz's Nenie op.10 inspired him for his own Nänie op.82.
                    I do think his violin concerto, his 2nd piano concerto and the overture to Francesca da Rimini are fine works. He died at just 36.

                      Erosphere, part 1 La Fin de Bruit.
                      Francois Bayle.
                      From the AGP installment 75.


                      I would be interested in expert views on this. i was really taken with this on first listen.

                      Seemed powerful,direct, and ,probably the wrong word,accessible.

                        I'm afraid MuSiq (or however you spell out his name in ancient Greek), Aphex Twin and most of those people who emerged from Techno in the 1990s pale into insignificance when placed beside what Bayle, Luc Ferrari and the rest of the Groupe de Recherches were achieving with musique concrete back in the 1950s and '60s. IMHO, naturally. Carry on searching, TS.

                            Sounds great TS. I like all the Bayle stuff I've heard. It would be helpful if Christopher Fox, or maybe our MrGG, could present a whole series on electronica on R3 - history, aetiology, the lot.

                              I have hovered more than once over this installment of the Avant Garde Project. With testimonials of the calibre of TS and S_A I shall hover no longer.

                              The most recent electronica I have auditioned on the AGP is "Voile d'Orphee" by Pierre Henry. Disturbing, haunting, achingly sad and very beautiful.
