Symphonie Concertante

The Symphonie Concertante is not an organ concerto, but rather an orchestral work in which the organ is another orchestra that takes the leading role it rightly deserves. There is no thematic or rhythmic connection between the four movements of this extensive work; the focus is set on the stylistic unity of the different movements.
- Joseph Jongen


Let me say that my old Walloon heart is impressed and moved by your new Symphony. It is a masterpiece and honors the whole country, especially Wallonia.
- Eugène Ysaÿe
