The Orchestre National de France, conducted by Bernard Haitink, proposes a two-part concert to pay tribute to two great composers :

- Béla Bartók : Concerto for orchestra BB 123
- Ludwig Van Beethoven : Symphony n°3 of half flat opus 55 , the so-called "Eroica"

The first concerto by Bartok is one of his most important pieces. From beginning to end, the music gradually changes from heavy and gloomy emotions to a positive vitality for life.
Then, Beethoven's' Symphony reflects the romantic period via sensibilities and passions in the music. In this concerto, the French Nationak Orchestra conducted by Haitink has kept their high quality of performance.

Recorded on July 21st 2013 at the Corum Opera Berlioz in Montpellier.
