Overview

This stunning compilation, Из Сокровищницы Мирового Исполнительского Искусства (From the Treasury of World Performing Art), captures the artistry of conductor André Cluytens leading the National Orchestra of the French Radio in performances of celebrated works by Bizet, Berlioz, Ravel, Mussorgsky, and Stravinsky. This 1980 release by Мелодия offers an immersive experience with Romantic and Modern classics, including Bizet’s lively Symphony in C Major, Berlioz’s dramatic Roman Carnival Overture, and the evocative Spanish colors of Ravel’s Rhapsodie Espagnole.

The collection continues with Mussorgsky’s powerful Night on the Bare Mountain and his haunting Dawn on the Moskva River from Khovanshchina. Concluding the compilation is Stravinsky’s masterful 1919 suite of The Firebird, a ballet that combines otherworldly themes with Russian folklore. Restored by B. Smirnov, these recordings highlight Cluytens’ exceptional ability to bring out the emotional depth and tonal brilliance of each composition.
