Franck Symphony in D minor

Never mind Poirot: here’s a real famous Belgian. César Franck seemed like the quiet type until, late in life, his music suddenly exploded with passion and power.

His Symphony in D minor begins in gothic grandeur and ends with a tune that you’ll never forget. Domingo Hindoyan loves it, and it’s a thrilling complement to the sunlight and wit of Saint-Saëns’ delightful ‘Egyptian’ concerto. Javier Perianes has been called its “ideal interpreter”, and you’re about to hear why.
