The Orchestre National de Lyon and its new musical director Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider have begun a collaboration with Channel Classics that includes several recordings combining the great works of the repertoire with lesser-known pieces. Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider, considered one of the outstanding violinists of our time, has made an international career as a conductor and today leads some of the world's greatest orchestras. On the album Strauss & Ibert, violist Amihai Grosz and cellist Jian Wang take on the musical roles of Sancho Panza and Don Quixote in Strauss' virtuoso tone poem Don Quixote. The symphonic suite from Jaques Ibert's Le chevalier errant also depicts moments from Cervantes' Don Quixote, peppered with scenes from the knight's adventures, including the famous battle in The Windmills, the dance of the galley slaves and various dances, including a flamenco.
