Although Cesar Franck won many prizes during his student days his music was generally unrecognised by his contemporaries. His pieces were written in the romantic style whilst retaining a classical structure and his later compositions were referred to as 'cathedrals of sound'. Panis Angelicus is poetic and almost serene and this arrangement by Philip Sparke retains all of the beauty of the original.

Obwohl César Franck schon während seiner Studienzeit einen Preis nach dem anderen gewann, bekam er doch erst zu späteren Lebzeiten die Anerkennung, die er eigentlich verdiente. Von seinen Zeitgenossen kaum wahrgenommen, genießt César Franck und seine religiös gefärbte, poetische, fast düstere Musik heute große Bewunderung. Panis Angelicus, das Philip Sparke arrangierte, ist zweifellos die beliebteste Komposition von Franck.

Wil van der Beek verschmolz in A Classical Christmas Weihnachtsmusik Stücke von drei berühmten französischen Komponisten des 19. Jahrhunderts: ein französisches Weihnachtslied von César Franck, ein expressives Thema aus dem Oratorium L'enfance du Christ von Hector Berlioz und Tollite Hosties von Camille Saint-Saëns. Der festliche Schluss sorgt für weihnachtlichen Glanz.

travers les siècles et de nos jours encore, Noël a été un thème d’inspiration privilégié pour les compositeurs. A Classical Christmas (“Noël classique”) rassemble des œuvres de trois grands compositeurs français du XIXe siècle.Le premier mouvement nous fait découvrir César Franck (1822-1890), grand organiste et brillant compositeur, qui a donné une réelle valeur artistique certains chants de Noël français traditionnels. Ce mouvement apaisé, au charme captivant, offre de nombreuses possibilités en termes de nuances et d’expression. La percussion intervient mais ne tient qu’un rôle modeste.Le thème de l’oratorio L’Enfance du Christ d’Hector Berlioz(1803-1869) est au centre du deuxième mouvement. Le thème est conçu comme une ode la sainte Famille. Ce deuxième mouvement, expressif et tendre, possède un caractère intimiste.Le thème du troisième et dernier mouvement est extrait de l’Oratorio de Noël de Camille Saint-Saëns (1835-1921). Il s’agit d’une page bien connue, le célèbre chœur final Tollite Hostias. La puissance et l’intensité donnent ce finale le ton festif qui caractérise Noël.

LES DJINNS was written at the request of pianist Caroline Montigny-Rémaury, though César Franck's (1822-1890) short work for piano and orchestra was instead premiered on March 15, 1885 by Louis Diémer with the Société Nationale de Musique. The piece is inspired by the poem of the same name in Victor Hugo's LES ORIENTALES, as Franck represents the idea of the mysterious and supernatural forces tearing the nocturnal sky through their passage. Franck was impressed with the virtuosic playing and interpretation of Diémer in this difficult work, which sparked a renewed interest in the piano for the composer. Instrumentation: 2.2.2.4: 4.2.3.1: Timp: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set): Solo Piano.
