Interestingly, in the Royal Library of Belgium (kbr.be), a lot of his scores turn up under "Godfried", not "Godefroid"....
The trumpet/orchestra work from 1950 is apparently an orchestration of a trumpet/piano work published a year earlier (and described either on the trumpet/piano score or only in the Royal Library catalog- I'm not sure- as a reduction of the orchestral work. If the former, I am doubting that 1950 year.)
