This album is the fifth and final installment of Maurice Ravel's Orchestral Works, bringing to a close the highly acclaimed cycle by the Radio-Sinfonieorchester Stuttgart and its chief conductor Stephane Deneve. Ravel's opera L'enfant et les sortileges is the second of his two operas and is considered a neglected masterpiece. The libretto is by the famous French author Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette.
“Stuttgart’s players excel, whether in the sexy trombone-led absurdity of the foxtrot, or the pregnant stillness of the garden. The choral singing is shapely in ‘Adieu, pastourelles!’ and ‘Il est bon, l’enfant’ and the journey of Camille Poul’s Child from fury to confusion, beguilement, fear and remorse is beautifully observed” BBC Music Magazine
