Paul Paray - Chabrier: Espana/ Suite Pastorale/ Fete Polonaise

Chabrier - Espana; Suite Pastorale; Fete Polonaise Detroit Symphony Orchestra, Paul Paray

Paul Paray is widely acclaimed as an acknowledged specialist in the French repertoire. The Chabrier pieces are sparkling, buoyant, joyful, and infectious. The sheer zing, gaiety, and color of the others will send spirits soaring.

The performance is breathtaking in its dynamic contrasts. The recording is legendary and was transferred from the original three-track master tapes on Bernie Grundman’s all-tube mastering system. Wilma Cozart Fine personally mixed the center channel during the transfer to lacquer. This is a true system-testing LP. Is yours up to the test?
