Belisia is the old Merovingian name of the Belgian town of Bilzen who commissioned this composition. It is also the composer’s place of birth. The work has two main themes. The melancholic theme in a minor key refers to the many ravages the town has suffered through the years and the second theme, stately and heroic, represents the inner strength and courage of the proud inhabitants of this town.
