Joly Braga Santos' Symphony #4

I had a driveway moment Friday afternoon, when I caught the last five minutes of Joly Braga Santos' stunning but tragically overlooked Symphony #4. Santos was Portuguese, and he wrote this when he was 27.

The finale will remind you of Bernstein and Resphigi. If you can't listen to the entire piece, listen from 42:13-47:02.
