UPC: 724356986121
Overview
Legendary violinist Anne‑Sophie Mutter joins Seiji Ozawa and the Orchestre National de France for a fiery program of Spanish‑tinged masterpieces. Lalo’s Symphonie espagnole Op. 21 sparkles with Iberian melodies, Sarasate’s Zigeunerweisen Op. 20 channels Romani flair, and Bizet’s Carmen Suite and Petite Suite “Jeux d’enfants” offer vivid orchestral color. Praised by Gramophone for Mutter’s formidable technique and lauded by Hamburger Morgenpost as a worthy successor to Sarasate, this stereo ADD compilation (1983–84 recordings) captures her virtuosic brilliance in vivid sound across 66 minutes 47 seconds.
