We did the Hamlet last season with DePriest and I really hated the piece. I know it isn't played often and it has some nice moments in the tuba part but the overall effect of the piece was, in my mind anyway, lost. It felt almost like bad movie music that has no direction, no story, nothing more than a series of disconnected fragments that don't make much sense together. I just remember thinking after the last performance that I was very happy that series of concerts was over and I hoped I never saw that piece again. I had nearly the same reaction to the Manfred Symphony, if you know what I mean.

My opinion for what it's worth...
