Description

A compelling cross-repertoire programme pairing Debussy and Ravel with Percy Grainger's vivid 'In A Nutshell' suite, captured at the height of Rattle's celebrated CBSO years. EMI's superb Symphony Hall engineering showcases the orchestra at its finest, and Rattle's natural affinity for French Impressionism shines throughout. An imaginative, rewarding disc for admirers of Rattle or anyone drawn to adventurous orchestral programming.

This is a used CD. The disc and case have been inspected and are in good condition. Broken or damaged jewel cases will be replaced before dispatch.
