Synopsis

Album Description

This volume of debussy's orchestral works under ernest ansermet brings together all of the composer's acknowledged masterpieces together with some of the shorter pieces. The rare 1951 recording of pr?lude ? l'apr?s-midi d'un faune and the 1949 recording of the images make their first appearance on cd. Ernest ansermet's second recording of la mer - he also recorded the piece for decca in 1947, 1957 and 1964 - his first of the nocturnes, and the early stereo version of jeux are, likewise, all rarities. The anthology is completed with an authentically french-sounding rapsodie pour clarinette as well as a lush clair de lune and a delectable petite suite.
