Jules Massenet was a French composer of opera and theatrical works, and at one point was the leading composer of opera in France. Massenet wrote seven suites for orchestra of which this is the seventh. This suite was first performed in 1882 and was inspired by memories of the province of Alsace and the Franco-Prussian War.

It is an inspiring work for both the performer and listener and has already enjoyed a debut performance at one Americas leading summer music festivals.
