Maurice Ravel - Daphnis et Chloe, Fragments Symphoniques, 2e Serie. Herbert von Karajan, BPO. Recorded 1964, Deutsche Grammophon.
Ok, I accept I'm a light-weight!!
I enjoyed the full score last night, but it's the second suite that hits the spot for me!
Playing this version for the second time today - will dig-up HvK's later DDD recording and give that a whirl at some point.
That's my CD version of the Suite too!
"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
Enjoy D anc C day people !!!............and no "pulling off the shelf !!":
in my defence, when I say I "like" Bolero, what I meant was,surprisingly, I don't mind hearing it,especially given the ice skating 'n all !! its not a regular on my turntable.
Honest !
I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

I would never diss the great man.....a genius composer who loved his football? What's not to love...but there may have been lonely moments while struggling with the 7th, perhaps, or mental blocks when trying to both compose and deal with the harsh political realities......
anyway, off topicc, and i shall pop something DSCH ish on the player today..after all the french and the russians were always good mates..and my D and C homage is done already !!

I'm going through a phase of DSCH's 1st Piano Concerto, with Martha Argerich & Sergei Nakariakov...
