UPDATE: The piece ends very abruptly at about 2:15. But, it does the same thing when I listen to it on Spotify, and Spotify shows it as a 2:15 long piece. I suspect that it continues to the next piece, which is not a part of Classical-music.com's free download. If that is not the answer, someone who is a whole lot smarter on this stuff (which is basically anyone. ha) will have to tell us what's going on. Thanks, G.

Another week, another free Classical-music.com download . . . .

This week it's Nielsen Symphony No. 3 III. Alegretto un poco:
This week's free download is the Allegretto from Carl Nielsen's Symphony No. 3, 'Sinfonia Espansiva'. It comes from a new recording by Sakari Oramo and the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, winner of the 2016 BBC Music Magazine Orchestral Award.

'The music of Nielsen is so much in the DNA of the orchestra that it felt completely natural and organic,' said Oramo. 'Although they are not Danish, it is still an orchestra that has had Nielsen around from when he himself conducted here.'

Here's the link. You must log in before you can download.

I'm listening to the piece as I write. If I hear any sound quality issues, I'll do an update to this post. No news is good news.
