Franz Lachner - Symphony No.1 in E-flat major, Op 32 (1828)

[@Piflaser]

Eine sehr schöne Symphonie, die es wert wäre öfter gespielt zu werden.

Lachner needs to be performed more often. Rich orchestration and sonorous harmonies make his symphonies most engaging...

[@vince-tcturner9082]

Great stuff! I really liked the third movement, sounded original to me. Schubert's and Rossini's influence are felt in the first two movements.

I just wanted to write how I enjoyed the music written by a close friend of Schubert's Lachner. Now you can continue with the painting discussion.

Actually, it is the market square of Louvain in Belgium. The structure on the left is easily recognizable as the 15th-century town hall of that old Flemish city.

Just got exposed to the music of Lachner. Very impressive!

[@GURHTTZ]

Yes, you're right! ;-)

[@MsVerlinden]

belle symphonie bien enlevée

[@GURHTTZ]

The painting is by Michael Neher and shows the market square of Leiden in South Holland.

Sounds like a fourth or fifth symphony to me!

Yes, it's Leuven. (I live in Leuven)

Хорошо что признал родной город

[@peterlim5730]

WHY only Mozart and Beethoven?

[@ВалераМедведев-м6в]

Да вы правы,Лахнер не сколько не хуже Бетховена,даже колоритней и сочнее,довольно интересный композитор
