Dutch Overtures - Netherlands Radio Symphony Orchestra,jac Van Steen - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

A highly enjoyable selection of orchestral Overtures by Dutch composers from the Romantic Era. Presented are Overtures by Johannes van Bree (1801-1857), Johan Wagenaar (1862-1941), Johannes Verhulst (1816-1891) and Jan van Gilse(1881-1944). Their works are inspired by the great examples of romantic overtures by Mendelssohn, Von Weber and Schumann: strong thematic characterization, passionate feelings, tone painting and brilliant orchestration: a feast of orchestral virtuosity! Played by the Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by maestro Jac van Steen, a champion of neglected orchestral music of the 19th century. Reissue from the NM Classics catalogue, the label for Music from the Netherlands.
