Artist Biography
The preeminent orchestra of the French-speaking regions of Belgium, the Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège has performed throughout the Benelux countries and France. It has championed music by Belgian composers in addition to a diet of French, German, and contemporary music.
The orchestra's eight conductors have included several who have gone on to international careers. Since 2011 the orchestra's music director has been Christian Arming. Programming has included the works of such contemporary composers as Philippe Boesmans, Henri Dutilleux, and Magnus Lindberg. The OPRL's commitment to Belgian music is apparent in the recording studio. The group has been especially active on recordings in the 2010s decade. The OPRL has recorded for the Musique en Wallonie, BIS, Naïve and Cyprès labels. ~ James Manheim
