Stravinsky: Petrushka (complete ballet) [with Bartok - Miraculous Mandarin]
Wiener Philharmoniker [Vienna Philharmonic], Christoph von Dohnanyi

[ Decca SBS Australian Eloquence / CD ]

Release Date: Tuesday 1 February 2011

"[Bartok] Dohnanyi doesn't spare them a bit: the chase is one of the most exciting on disc, while the subsequent attack and attempted murder of the Mandarin (with terrifying organ sound) will make your hair stand on end... It's a great performance, and so is the Petrushka... Sonically this stands among Decca's best recordings from this source. A sensational reissue, and a bargain to boot." (ClassicsToday)
