Franck Symphonie in D minor

Debussy Jeux

Bizet L’Arlésienne
    Suite No. 1, Op. 23 (1872)
        I. Ouverture
        IV. Carillon
    Suite No. 2 (1879: by Bizet, arranged by Guiraud)
        I. Pastorale
        II. Intermezzo
        IV. Farandole

Bizet’s L’Arlésienne Suites are a crowd- pleasing mix of Gallic charm, Provençal folksong and hits from The Pearl Fishers. They follow Debussy’s fleet-footed, subtle and alluring Jeux, and Franck’s poignant and ultimately triumphant D Minor Symphony.
