Ansermet's Sheherazade
Aug 08, 2015, 09:50
If you mean Ansermet's Paris Conservatoire recording (as distinct from the Suisse Romande one) I'm with you - it's fabulous. I've got both recordings, but it's the earlier one that is the more vibrant.

I've also got recordings of Sheherazade conducted by Beecham, Karajan, Reiner, Stokowski, Dutoit, Celibidache, Dorati, Steinberg and Kondrashin. Each has its own merits but I'll always maintain that the version that introduced me to the work - Matacic's - is particularly special. It's still available on a Testament CD if anyone's interested.
