Luxembourg Philharmonic Orchestra- Pictures at An Exhibition / Scheherazade (CD)
For this second collaboration with the Luxembourg Philharmonic Orchestra, Emmanuel Krivine and Zig-Zag Territoires, two major Russian works were chosen. Both make the orchestra sound sumptuous with the complicity of that fantastic colorist and orchestrator Maurice Ravel, and the skill of a composer nicknamed 'the magician of the orchestra.' Emmanuel Krivine excels in these demanding works that necessitate as much commitment as perspicacity from the conductor, at the service of scores magnifying the fantastic musical instrument that is the modern symphony orchestra.
