Description: Product Description In exile in London during World War I, Joseph Jongen (Liège, 1873 - Sart-lez-Spa, 1953) composed there numerous works. This CD brings together some of his pieces for orchestra, whose masters are called Franck, Wagner, Debussy and Ravel. His symphonic works from the Great War period compel recognition as the last vestiges of a world on which the language of late romanticism had still left a reassuring mark.Review "With a growing reputation as one of today's most promising up-and-coming artists, Belgian-Israeli violist Nathan Braude gives a stirring account of the suite. He receives admirable support from the Royal Liege Philharmonic Orchestra under Belgian conductor Jean-Pierre Haeck, all of whom make a strong case for these little-known works...Jongen's colorful scoring favors higher ranging instruments, and as recorded here this results in sound with a bright upper end and sparkling midrange." --Bob McQuiston, Classical Lost and Found
