Marc Albrecht conducts Franck's Symphony in d
The Antwerp Symphony Orchestra celebrates local music in this poignant programme. It features music by Wim Henderickx, the late composer in residence and a cherished figure in contemporary classical music. His legacy continues to resonate deeply. Pianist-composer Arthur De Greef’s Cinq chants d’amour, on texts by Charles Fuster, transport us to the Romantic era, with hints of Flemish carillon delicately woven into the soprano’s accompaniment. A devoted disciple of Franz Liszt, De Greef also championed works by César Franck, the Liège-born composer who shaped a generation of French musicians.
