Label: NAXOS Catalog: 8573124 Format: CD ORCHESTRE NATIONAL DE LYON SLATKINMaurice Ravel's incomparable skill in orchestration and command of orchestral colour is evident both in his own works and in his orchestrations for ballet, while new life was given to his late friend Debussy's Sarabande et Danse at the request of publisher Jean Jobert. Ravel's iconic orchestration of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition makes telling use of a large orchestra, vividly depicting scenes that range from the playful to the macabre. Price: $19.98 |
