Soon all the guests will have left, and all the dishes will be cleaned. Time to pop a couple of malted eggs, or to pour yourself a malt scotch, and to wrap up your Easter in inspiring fashion with the Symphony No. 4 by the devout Belgian composer Joseph Ryelandt.
Ryelandt’s symphony, completed on the very eve of World War I, concludes with a triumphant statement of the Credo from the Catholic Mass. Then stick around for a Credo setting by the Franco-Flemish composer, of some four centuries earlier, Josquin des Prez.
Enjoy these two spiritual discoveries rooted in the Mass, this Sunday evening at 10:00 EDT, on WWFM – The Classical Network and wwfm.org.
