Albert Roussel, much-travelled midshipman inspired by visions from the East, successfully endows the intrinsic classicism of the symphony with both dryness and impressionist lushness. Distinguished conductors, impressed by Roussel's powerful, luminous and ultimately classical composition, perform this unique collection of four masterpieces, Bacchus et Ariane offering a balanced dose of sense and sensibility.
