D’Indy: Symphonie No. 2, Op. 57

Somewhat overlooked in the late 20th-century for being labelled as academic, the music of Vincent d’Indy has been revived by the untiring trailblazer of Romantic French music Michel Plasson. Far less renowned than his first symphony “On a French Mountain Air”, the second has been rarely recorded but has plenty of charm and will please the César Franck lovers, whose much of its inspiration draws from.
