专辑简介
A New Recording of Stravinsky by Stravinsky! Masterworks' long and storied relationship with composer and conductor Igor Stravinsky has an exciting new chapter. Throughout the 1960's, Stravinsky re-recorded all of his works in stunning stereo productions for Columbia Masterworks. In 1967, he recorded the interludes and underscoring of The Soldier's Tale, to complete his 1961 recording of the suite. The masters were never released, and the components of the completed version lay forgotten in the vaults.
Now, 40 years later, and in time for Stravinsky's 125th birthday, one of the greatest compositions of the 20th century is available as it should be heard, for the very first time. Edited by Grammy?? Award winning producers Steven Epstein and Simon Rhodes and Grammy?? Award winning engineer Richard King, this definitive CD features a delicious new narration by Academy?? Award winning actor, Jeremy Irons.
The extensive liner notes include a new essay by renowned Stravinsky scholar, Richard Taruskin, new interviews with the 1961 and 1967 session musicians and producer and Executive Producer Warren Wernick's account of how the final "new" recording was realized.
