At the Netherlands Music Festival in 1912, van Gilse met with great recognition for his imposing work. Daniël de Lange wrote that the work had originated at a time "during which pieces like 'Wandrers Sturmlied' by Richard Strauss became more popular and Wagner's influence had reached its absolute zenith. In a worthy manner van Gilse's work follows the current musical trend. The orchestration is masterful.  Price: $25.98 |
