Thanks for the suggestion about finding it on Qobuz, but when I tried it again the recording didn’t materialize. Weird
Daphnis and Chloe
You haven’t really heard this work if you haven’t listened to a recording of it from the very dawn of stereo: Antal Dorati, 1954, Mercury. In most performances of this Ravel masterpiece we get a beautiful wash of sound which is quite intoxicating. Dorati (and Mercury) reveals the inner workings which are revelatory. Not just beautiful sound but what’s really going on. The composition becomes even better than it seems.
Can be heard on Qobuz.
