GIACOMO PUCCCINI
Puccini: Symphonic Suites
Welsh National Opera Orchestra, Carlo Rizzi
[ Signum / CD - released 9/Feb/2024 ]
Puccini never made any orchestral suites from his immensely popular operas. Carlo Rizzi's new imaginings neatly fill this gap (all the best bits without any of that pesky singing …) and this useful album also explores two early-and decidedly...

Bernstein: Songfest (with works by Gershwin & Copland)
Wolf Trap Opera, National Orchestral Institute Philharmonic, James Judd
[ Naxos American Classics / CD - released 1/May/2020 ]
An American in Paris is one of Gershwin's most vivacious works, an orchestral ballet saturated in homesickness and the blues. This recording, however, uses the new 2019 critical edition and offers Gershwin's original orchestration.

Stravinsky: Persephone (compete melodrama)
Andrew Staples & Pauline Cheviller / Finnish National Opera, Esa-Pekka Salonen
[ Pentatone SACD / CD - released 1/Apr/2019 ]
"Orchestral textures are clean yet sensuous, rhythms exactingly precise. In lesser hands, the score can seem episodic. Salonen, however, forges it into a unified drama, in which not a note or word seems wasted…The choral singing is warm and focused."
