The Jongen piece is a blast and well-constructed, good tunes and great kinetic energy in the Finale. I first came across the piece when Telarc released a recording with the SFO.HDTT's offering a new recording with Houston University's school orchestra. Will execution (and persuasively idiomatic playing style) be a problem? I doubt it. Young musicians' technique is amazing these days. I see John Proffitt responsible for the recording.
The Poulenc Concerto is also included as well as a short "symphony" by Bacri. My go-to recent recording for the Poulenc, scratch that, **not** so recent recording (Good Lord, time flies!!) is Linn's.
