Symphony No. 4 in A major
01. I. Massig bewegt, einfach, heiter
02. II. Intermezzo. Ruhig fliessend
03. III. Langsam, sehr ruhig
04. IV. Schnell und heftig
05. Treurmuziek bij den dood van Uilenspiegel
06. Concert Overture in C minor
The third instalment of cpo’s van Gilse Symphony series includes the popular fourth symphony. Van Gilse helped to fund the printing of hundreds of scores so it was for this reason his powerful and individual fourth symphony was not forgotten.
In contrast his Concert Overture has almost completely disappeared from the stage and the Funeral Music on the Death of Uilenspiegel had to wait until the end of World War II before it received its premiere.
