Dutoit's depiction of Ravel's colors
A masterpiece that shines with rich colors and an exquisite ensemble.
The complete version of "Daphnis et Chloe" represents the pinnacle of Ravel's orchestration skills, and Dutoit brilliantly orchestrates its complex sonorities. The crystalline sound of the Montreal Symphony Orchestra and the beautiful harmonies of the Montreal Chorus vividly portray the idyllic world of ancient Greece. This 1981 recording is a definitive masterpiece.
