I didn't think much of MacDowell until very recently... when I started listening to him

So I was wondering what you guys thought of his music. His style is very fiery and different, but I like it very much, he has some genius works which unfortunately aren't really that popular.
Here's two examples if you aren't already familiar with the composer. Not really an A-list(lol) composer, but a good one with very intriguing pieces.
2nd Modern Suite
