Basque National Orchestra - Maurice Ravel: Valses nobles et sentimentales, Menuet antique, Frontispice, Sh�h�razade Ouverture, Ma m�re l'Oye (Complete Ballet)

Robert Trevino�s first album together the Basque National Orchestra featuring orchestral works by the great French-Basque composer Maurice Ravel (1875�1937) received an excellent response. The programme in this second volume is perhaps more �French� in nature, but the Basque orchestra is giving dazzling performances of these works by their own national composer. While the first album was focused on some of Ravel�s most popular orchestral works, this album includes some rarities, including Ma m�re l�Oye (Mother Goose) in its complete ballet version, as well as one world premi�re recording: Pierre Boulez�s orchestration of Ravel�s World War I era piano work, Frontispice.
