    It has to be, as I'm in double figures for Satie LPs, including The Camarata Contemporary Chamber Group, which includes synthesisers, a Japanese CD which has his music played on traditional Japanese instruments, and an LP of Vexations, where, supposedly, a short theme is repeated 840 times, although not on the LP, that only has 35 renditions of the theme.

    Different times and different styles would give different results but currently I'm enjoying some English pastoral music so I'll choose:

    Fredrick Delius
    George Butterworth
    Ralph Vaughan-Williams
    Gustav Holst
    Peter Warlock
