Charles Tournemire - Symphony No. 6 (Score Video)

00:00 Première partie 24:56 Deuxième partie Performed by the Liège Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Pierre Bartholomée, the Namur Symphonic Choir, and the Chœur Polyphonia de Bruxelles Daniel Galvez-Vallejo, tenor Luc Ponet, organ Everyone knows 2020 as the 250th anniversary of Beethoven's birth, yet it is also the 150th birth anniversary of one of the most fascinating composers of the early 20th century. Charles Tournemire (1870-1939) was one of the greatest organists of his time; as a composer, he is primarily known for his liturgical organ cycle "L'Orgue mystique", but his compositions for other instruments and ensembles remain neglected. Tournemire's eight symphonies embody the development of French music at the turn of the century; his early works in the genre bear the influence of his teacher César Franck, while the symphonies of Tournemire's later period tend toward increasing chromaticism - his eighth and last symphony of 1924 makes extensive use of non-functional harmony and even sonorities foreshadowing late Prokofiev! In my view, Tournemire's sixth symphony is the most undeservedly forgotten choral symphony of the Romantic era. Over 50 minutes long and scored for an instrumentation that even Mahler (to whose choral symphonies it is frequently compared) might envy, it contains clear influences from German Romanticism. Nevertheless, the work is distinctly French in its character. Musically, the way Tournemire uses melodic material and the frequency of rich augmented sonorities and ninth chords make this abundantly clear; the Biblical text compiled by the composer, meanwhile, refers to the suffering of the French people during World War I.
