Does anyone know this gorgeous early (1897) cantata by Jongen?>>

Very Wagnerian, but very French at the same time...

Dear Alan

   I have this cd, I bought it maybe 8-10 (or more)! years ago, I need listen it again!! I don't remember good if this work gave him the Prix Rome to Jongen. He didn't write oper. Comala will be the nearest work to oper by Jongen. It's one youthful work.
