Ansermet Conducts French Music 32cd Set
) | Label: DECCA Catalog: 4807898 Format: CD Ernest AnsermetErnest Ansermet is Deccas direct link to the cauldron of creativity at the beginning of 20th century music. Friend of Debussy, Ravel and Stravinsky, Ansermet championed their music throughout his long career. His Decca recordings with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande have assumed legendary and benchmark status for much of the French repertoire. His double good fortune was to be at his peak in the mid-1950s at the dawn of stereo recording; and for his record label to be Decca, renowned then as now for unrivaled sound recording quality, underpinned by the famous Decca tree microphone set- up, sensitive engineers and producers, and intelligent choice of recording venues. This 32CD collection shows Ansermet in his prime, conducting French Masterworks by Debussy, Ravel, Saint-Saëns, Berlioz, Faure and many more.  Price: $121.98 |
