In our December issue, we celebrate the 200th anniversary of César Franck by exploring the Belgian composer’s life and music, from the organ works that made him famous in his own time to his hugely colourful orchestral pieces. Plus, hear his Symphony in D minor and Le chasseur maudit on your cover CD. Elsewhere in the issue, we reveal how a French composer’s ability as a pianist saved her from the guillotine, tell how German composers were banned by Britain in times of war, and enjoy the various arrangements made of Parry’s Jerusalem over the years, from Elgar to Emerson, Lake & Palmer. Gliére is our Composer of the Month, and the best recordings of Howells’s Requiem are named in Building a Library.
