Cambreling reveals the hidden mysteries contained in Messiaen's massive, ultimate score!
"This work was commissioned by Zubin Mehta and the New York Philharmonic Orchestra for its 150th anniversary. It was to be Messiaen's last completed major work, and was seen by many to be the summing up of a life in music."
- Cambreling reveals the hidden mysteries contained in Messiaen's massive, ultimate score!
- The SWR Baden-Baden u. Freiburg play to perfection, sensitive to every nuance!
- Guaranteed to appeal to all collectors of contemporary music
"The orchestra's superb winds also execute their many birdsong imitations with great verve, and of all of the available performances this certainly is the most highly contrasted, the most distinctively characterized from movement to movement. Typically excellent sonics from the SWR radio engineers make this disc essential listening for anyone intrigued by the possibilities offered by Messiaen's last major work, and if forced to choose just one version, this would be it."
