César Franck is perhaps best known for his organ works and late masterpieces such as the Violin Sonata. The Royal Scottish National Orchestra and conductor Jean-Luc Tingaud have recorded three of Franck’s lesser-known works. Le Chasseur maudit (The Accursed Hunter) tells the story of a count who dares to go hunting on a Sunday morning. Les Éolides and Psyché are more impressionistic in atmosphere and much appreciated for their subtle orchestration and lyrical inventiveness.
