Sonorous, romantic horn sounds perfectly match the organ with its many contrasting colours and huge tessitura. Yet, hardly any original compositions have been written for this combination. However, the music of the Austrian composer Anton Bruckner and his Belgian French contemporary Cesar Franck lends itself perfectly to transcriptions for horn ensemble and organ. Both were famous organists and both include prominent horn parts in their orchestral works. Their compositions were deeply influenced by the music of Richard Wagner. Three examples of Wagner's innovative musical language, along with works by Weber, Delibes, Massenet and Richard Strauss complete the programme of this CD. Herman Jeurissen wrote all the arrangements and conducts the Ensemble Capricorno with Geerten van de Wetering, organ.
