Some seem to fall into groups, such as Nos. 22-24, all written within a nine-month period between 1964 and 1965. They all share a concern for march-rhythms, changeable moods and developing variation. No. 22 is Brian's shortest symphony and exemplifies his art in it's most compressed, nocturnal form, whereas No. 23 offers a more extrovertly scored and expansive scale. No. 24 provides the triumphant rejoicing that ends the trilogy. Influenced by Tchaikovsky, the 1906 English Suite No. 1 nevertheless hints at Brian's sonic experiments to come.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Maestoso E Ritmico \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Tempo Di Marcia E Ritmico \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Moderato \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Adagio Non Troppo Ma Pesante \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Symphony No. 24 in D Major \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Characteristic March \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Valse \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Under the Bench Tree \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Interlude \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Hymn \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Carnival\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
