Strongly Franck inspired, though none the worst for that. Not as good a work as the Concert but I'm glad I heard it. Deeply committed reading from the players - a few lapses in ensemble nothwithstanding.

I have been enjoying YPTortelier's recording with the BBC PO of the Chausson symphony coupled together with Soir Du Fete and Viviane this week .Highly recommended as it goes with a real swing and is in much better sound than the Munch and Ansermet recordings , although the former in particular remains my favourite recording with real flair and character.
