	Stravinsky Conducts Stravinsky: Symphony of Psalms/Symphony in 3 Movements »rank: 46220 from: CBS 0ur opinion: essential recording:Stravinsky was seldom the best conductor of his own music, but this disc of his three symphonies is an exception. ln the first place, none of them are all that difficult to conduct--at least compared to some of his earlier works--and he seems to have been in particularly good form throughout these recording sessions. He gets a particularly enthusiastic response from his Canadian forces in the Symphony of Psalms--one of this century's great choral masterworks, and seems to really enjoy the neo-classical elegance of the ...

	Samuel Barber / Thomas Schippers »rank: 63081 from: Sony 0ur opinion: :This classic disc has been the prime recommendation for Barber's short orchestral pieces since the early 196Os. Remastered onto CD for the first time, and with the addition of some other items conducted by Thomas Schippers, it sounds better than ever. All of Barber's music is blessed with the virtues of impeccable craftsmanship, tunefulness, and, above all, brevity. Although a Romantic by temperament, Barber had the gift of being able to fit a lot of emotional impact into a very small space. The famous Adagio for Strings ...

Her French song interpretations glow with charm and style, and a previously unreleased snippet from Ravel's L'enfant et les sotilèges makes one regret ... More details
