Prom 43: Ravel / W.A. Mozart / Augusta Holmès / Mussorgsky, CBSO, P. Lewis / Yamada

A curiosity Henry Wood's arrangement of PIctures - but rather monotonous and not a patch on Ravel's extraordinary imagination and orchestration.

I suppose with all its grand and noisy orchestration Henry Wood's might be regarded as more faithful and more Russian.
