CORNELIS (Bruxelles 1933) Over
the years, his musical activities have diversified
to cover composition ; musical critique with the
newspaper, La Libre Belgique ; teaching harmony at
the Braine-l'Alleud Academy ; author of a well
received treatise on musical analysis, and the
orchestra conducting, with the late Maitre
René Defossez. Although
his works may be considered as néo-tonal,
they are open to all tendancies. However, one
constant dominates his conception : the search for
colour and atmosphere lend a chromatic vision and
modality to his works. Translation :
Karen Dehaes
