The WDR Sinfonieorchester of Cologne, together with the WDR Rundfunkchor (radio choir) and two soloists, have recorded all orchestral works by Mel Bonis. The recordings were made from 2 to 6 September, according to information provided by the "Association Mel Bonis".

The newsletter said they didn't know the date(s) of the broadcast yet, but if recordings were made over the course of several days, there surely will be more than just a broadcast.
