Notes & Reviews:
Rattle is no more at home than when conducting masterpieces from the 20th-century repertoire, and in this set of 5 CDs he can be heard performing works by two great French masters. From Debussy's revolutionary 'Prelude a l'apres-midi d'un faune' to Ravel's 'Piano Concerto in G,' Rattle takes us on a journey through the world of French impressionist orchestral music.
