4/5. Nationalism. D'lndy was a tireless promoter of his fellow countrymen's music, both at home and abroad. He served in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 and was frustrated by his inability to serve his country again in the First World War, even though he was by then 63 years old. French regionalism was in his blood and he found inspiration in the countryside for his music. Today
Donald Macleod considers different aspects of the composer's nationalist sympathies. Sur la Mer, Op 32;
L'Apothicaire Facétieux
BBC Singers, conductor Ronald Corp
Jourd'Ete a la Montagne Loire Valley PO, conductor Pierre Dervaux
Overture: Fervaal Netherlands Radio PO, conductor Jean Fournet
