Cesar Franck wrote his Symphony in D minor in 1887/88; in spite of the work's lukewarm reception at its world premiere on 17 February 1889, the work was published during his lifetime. It was not until a few years later that the established conductors dared perform this work more frequently . It marked the inevitable triumph of a work which had once caused such a furor and whose individuality of conception burst the framework of the genre (double tonality of D and F minor in the opening movement; the combination of Andante and Scherzo in the central one; the recapitulation of the main themes and motifs of the previous movements in the finale). The work was finally accepted into the concert repertoire for good around the turn of the century, not least through the good offices of influential critics and composers.Just as with the previously published Carnival of the Animals (PB/OB 5321) by Saint-Saens, Franck's work also raises many questions concerning its origin and history. Peter Jost based his work on the first edition (the autograph was destroyed in a fire in 1935) as well as on the piano reduction (four-handed) by the composer.A major work of the late-romantic repertoire, Cesar Franck's only symphony joins the ranks of Breitkopf & Hartel's new orchestral editions which follow the principles of Source Criticism for Practical Use.

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 zu Lebzeiten einigen Erfolg mit seinen Kompositionen hatte, erlangte er nie die Anerkennung, die ihm eigentlich zustand. César Franck schrieb romantische Musik, aber in seinen Werken sind auch klassische Strukturen zu erkennen. Panis Angelicus (,Himmlisches Brot') schrieb Franck als Kommunionslied für Tenor, Harfe, Violoncello und Orgel. Entdecken Sie das gelungene Arrangement für Brass Band von Philip Sparke.

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.
