Description:

[Encore Press: Mercury Living Presence 50] "Daphnis et Chloe," a dreamlike piece based on a pastoral story from Greek mythology, "Elegant and Sentimental Waltz," modeled on Schubert's "Waltz," and "Bolero," a piece that repeats only two melodies with different instruments and a rhythm from a Spanish dance. Bolero" builds to an overwhelming climax. Nocturne" depicts the impression of light and shadow through sound, and the lyrical "Suite" is an arrangement of a piano piece. The masterpieces by Ravel and Debussy are recorded under the direction of Paray, who was well known for his French works. Rubidium clock cutting. [Performed by] Wayne State University Women's Glee Club (4), Detroit Symphony Orchestra, Conductor: Paul Palais
