Belgian choral and orchestral conductor Philippe Herreweghe (b. 1947) began his career conducting Baroque ensembles in the 1970s. A specialist in the music of the Grand Siècle, he extended his repertoire to include classical greats such as Mozart and Beethoven, and works by Romantic composers such as symphonies from Schumann to Mahler, right up to Anton Bruckner's Romantic Fourth Symphony. Founder of the Chapelle Royale in 1977, he has conducted several other ensembles (Ensemble vocal européen, Orchestre des Champs-Élysées) and recorded some sixty works for Harmonia Mundi, before founding his own PHI label in 2010. In 2003, Philippe Herreweghe was awarded the Légion d'honneur.
