TCHAIKOVSKY: ORCHESTRAL SUITES 3 & 4 "MOZARTIANA", NUTCRACKER SUITE - ANSERMET, L'ORCHESTRE DE LA SUISSE ROMANDE (2 CDS)

The three 2-CD Tchaikovsky/Ansermet sets, The Sleeping Beauty, The Nutcracker and Swan Lake, represent his complete Tchaikovsky recordings for Decca. Ansermet’s recording of The Nutcracker is in a league of its own and many will find fascinating his own sequencing of numbers from Swan Lake and The Sleeping Beauty. Refined, yet passionate, many of the pieces on these recordings make their first international appearance on CD.
