Yolande Uyttenhove

Yolande Uyttenhove

Yolande Uyttenhove (July 25, 1925 – February 2, 2000) was a Belgian composer and pianist.

A native of Leuze, Uyttenhove studied music at the Brussels Conservatory, and gained in addition a licentiate diploma from the Royal Academy of Music in London. She received numerous international awards for piano and composition, and placed in competitions in Barcelona, Viotti, and Lutèce. Her music owed much to that of the Romantics, especially Gabriel Fauré, and borrowed from medieval traditions as well; it was enhanced through modern harmonic structures. Her own name for this style of composition was "intemporel".
