The main theme twinkles in from about 3 mins 45 after a lot of noisy bluster (the style reminds me of the Warsaw Concerto):
And ends here...

I was coming back to set something, and found you'd got here first anton... Feels rather desolate in the AA corridor these daysOriginally posted by antongould View Post
However, I may have solved your rather abstruse "F"!
Is it F for Finnegans (Wake)?
One Don Shirley wrote a tone poem based on the Joyce book http://www.nathankramer.com/donshirley/bio.htm
John Cage wrote Roaratorio, an Irish circus on Finnegans Wake in 1979
I Dreamt That I Dwelt in Marble Halls from Michael Balfe's opera The Bohemian Girl, features in Finnegans Wake
Ker-ching... the penny's just dropped... "Wake"...

Naxos Library tells us:Originally posted by Caliban View PostIncline towards the latter, señor
"Alberto Ginastera’s dazzling Glosses on Themes of Pablo Casals, heard here in both its original version for string quintet and string orchestra and its later fully-orchestrated version, pays tribute to his close friend, the legendary cellist (and composer) on the occasion of the centenary of Casals’s birth. The Variaciones concertantes places a variety of instruments in the limelight with featured solos, culminating in a virtuosic malambo, the archetypical gaucho ‘jousting’ dance whose vertiginous motion engenders frenetic enthusiasm among both participants and onlookers."
Howzat?
