Or how about:

Are there any recordings out of any of Paul Hindemith's
choral works?  Some of my favorite 20th century choral
music is by Hindemith, but realtively little of it is
in print.

On a similar topic:

It seems that, at least in California, the current rage
in choral music is modern Swedish--Lars Edlund, Egil
Hovland, etc.  Thirty or so years ago in New England
it was Hindemith.  What I'm curious about is what various
groups around the country are singing--not just the
standard Bach/Beethoven/Mozart fare, but who are the
'big' composers?  Britten, Richard Felciano, Andrew
Imbrie, and Kirke Mechem seem 'big' locally (the bay
area), but the latter three either are currently or
once were affiliated with UC-Berkeley, Stanford, or
Univ. of San Francisco.
