Opus 24

== History ==
*This work was in all likelihood composed in 1946.<ref>The autograph doesn't give a date, but opp. 23 and 25 also date from that year, furthermore, this is confirmed by [[Tessely]] (p.42), who collaborated with Legley when compiling her catalogue.</ref>
*On 20 April 1947, the work was first performed by the NIR orchestra.<ref>Anonymous: ''Concert par le grand orchestre symphonique'' in ''Micro'', March 1947. This article doesn't mention a conductor, possibly it was Nino Sanzogno (see note 3).</ref><ref>CeBeDeM - lijst werken: ''Oeuvres de Victor Legley'' (p.1) gives 1948 as year of the first performance with conductor Nino Sanzogno.</ref>

*autograph 2: according to [[De Roeck]] (p.285), this score would have been present in the archives that Legley's son kept. In 2011 however, these archives were donated to the library of the Royal Conservatory Brussels, where the work isn't present. Perhaps the family Legley kept the manuscript.
