His student Eugène Ysaÿe insisted that his master's works were \"treasures that should be protected at all costs\" and that they \"should be known in their entirety,\" and the bicentennial of his birth in 2020 will be an occasion to do just that, as unpublished works that were passed down only to the composer's family have been discovered.
