[Arnell] completed the third of his six symphonies in August 1945. …an enormously ambitious canvas… whose staggering reserves of energy, affirmative spirit and lack of inhibition should gain the composer many new admirers. There are echoes of Nielsen (try the second movement's nobly flowing second subject from 0'58") and Shostakovich - and at times the music has something of the wide-screen rhetoric of the Harris, Copland, Diamond and Schuman symphonies from the same decade... Martin Yates and a geared-up RSNO give of their best. The disc also contains a red-blooded account of Arnell's similarly irrepressible and communicative 1939 overture The New Age.
