Tchaikovsky: Sleeping Beauty (complete ballet)

"Mogrelia's is certainly one of the best recordings currently available. Mogrelia takes a very relaxed approach to the music. There's nothing barnstorming here, just some fine musicianship. It's almost as if the orchestra is accompanying a production of the ballet rather than playing it through as an orchestral work in its own right. Tempi are generally on the slow side but this is of no detriment to the music whatsoever - slow is different to lethargic and cautious. Mogrelia's chosen tempi allow for some relaxed music-making in the best sense and everything is very fresh and nicely pointed. The Rose Adagio sounds especially glorious. If you buy it you won't be disappointed." MusicWeb
