Hi-
I probably should listen to a few more recordings of that, and I will.
I know that Tasmin Little has championed that, and I loved her Delius.
I recall the Moeran (always thought he was an unumlauted German but turns out he was Anglo-Irish) as in the same ballpark as A Lark Ascending (good company, certainly) with the merits and demerits of being more diffusely focused. Perhaps more themes than the structure can support?
ATB,

Follow Ups:
The Tasmin Little,recording is probably available on Hyperion w// .?. Brabins conducting ?
How about a suggestion for "The Lark Ascending" when you mentioned this I immediately recognized the ridiculous gap that exists in my library. (We can't have that, can we ?)
Thanks John
My favorite performance of this piece of Hugh Bean's conducted by Boult. I haven't heard any that I like bettert.
Label , please !
(I guessing it was EMI, that this was on (or was it Decca ?)
It was on EMI, and I found 11 albums at Arkivmusic (mostly box sets) that include this rendition of this piece. You can preview it here:
