The list of set works for the 2009 Belgian National Championships, which will be held on Sunday 29th of November at the Lemmens Institute Concert Hall in Brussels have been announced.

Resurgam

There will be a great deal of interest in the choices too, with more than a few eyebrows raised at Eric Ball's classic 'Resurgam' picked as the Third Division set work.

The top section bands hoping to gain the National title and the all important European qualification place to Linz in 2010 will have to overcome John Pickard's 'Eden'.

Set works:
Championship Division: Eden — John Pickard
First Division: Royal Parks — George Lloyd
Second Division: Trittico — James Curnow
Third Division: Resurgam — Eric Ball
