Synopsis

Amazon.com

Jesus Lopez-Cobos proves himself a perceptive and idiomatic interpreter of some of Ravel's most popular works. A conductor with a fine ear and a style that lends itself more to elegance than brute force, he encourages his players to explore every nook and cranny of these colorful scores, without any sacrifice of energy or excitement. He's helped in no small degree by Telarc's excellent recording, which allows the music to build to a natural climax that conveys maximum impact without any sense of strain. There are many excellent Ravel discs out there, and this certainly deserves to be considered one of them. --David Hurwitz

(5 out of 5 stars)

"What else can you say when a spirited performance of astoundingly inspired music is brilliantly recorded with depth and clarity as on this recording? Not only are these pieces excellent examples of Ravel's orchestral mastery; the sonics Telarc uses to tranmit them through your speakers will have you rapt with respect. The instrumental colors captured here run from excitingly vivid pizzicato stings to reflectively subdued woodwinds. The Bolero is excellent; it covers every decibel level. But, some of Ravel's slyest orchestral tricks will delight you in the Rapsodie and La Valse. This disc is well worth adding to your collection."
