Rsno/Tingaud - C�sar Franck: Le Chasseur Maudit, Psych�, Les �loides

C�sar Franck was a childhood prodigy who gained later renown as an organist and teacher. His compositions received scant attention until the success of Le Chasseur maudit, a symphonic morality tale that vividly portrays the �accursed huntsman� from his defiance of the Sabbath to a dramatic chase and a horrific fate. Les �olides is infused with Wagnerian colours and depicts the mythological Aeolids as they reawaken nature with their song. Franck�s lushly orchestrated final symphonic poem Psych� expresses the power of love in dreams and a passionate union.
