Remarks:
Stephane Deneve's accounts of Roussel's symphonies have been praised for their 'energy, enthusiasm, and panache' (American Record Guide on No. 2 - 8.570529 - which also gained Gramophone Editor's Choice) and 'electrifying... ravishing...breathtaking' (The Herald on No. 3 - 8.570245). 'Resurrection', Roussel's first orchestral work, is a delicate and mysterious piece inspired by Tolstoy's last novel, while 'Le marchand de sable qui passe' (The Sandman) is a tuneful, colorfully orchestrated suite. His Symphony No. 1 'Poem of the Forest' traces the cycle of seasons from winter to autumn through its four movements.Reviews
