TCHAIKOVSKY: SUITES FOR OR

Author: Dorati/New Philharmonia Orchestra

Release Date: 17-09-1996

Details: Amazon.ca Newly remastered in fine sound, and reissued at a two-for-one price, these discs offer the finest ever recordings of Tchaikovsky's four delicious orchestral suites. Of the major orchestral works, these pieces have been mostly dismissed and neglected--shamefully so, as they contain some very fine music. Once in a while someone trots out the finale of the Third Suite, or the Fourth (based on music by Mozart) gets a little exposure, but that's about it. The reason is simple: none of these works is an emotional heavyweight--they really reflect nothing more than the composer's desire to make some pretty music. For most listeners, that will be reason enough to want to hear them. --David Hurwitz
