| |  | Yakov Kreizberg conducts Debussy & Ravel
This is the second release in this new series under the direction of the late Yakov Kreizberg. The ballet theme of the first release is continued with two more works much performed by the Ballets Russes; Ravel’s Daphnis & Chloé and Debussy’s Prélude à l’Apres-midi d’un faune”. “His innate musicianship and poetic imagination leave their trace on almost every bar of Ravel's mighty ballet. The conductor's keen aural sense and ability to blend sounds work wonders with his Monte Carlo musicians...few [recordings] match the emotional sensitivity and expressive finesse of Kreizberg's interpretations.” Classic FM Magazine, September 2011 **** “the choral writing can be heard in great detail, even in the hubbub of the final pages.” BBC Music Magazine, November 2011 ** | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
