Description:

[Various Scenes Depicted by Ravel, as Interpreted by Svensen]An album by Joseph Svensenborn in New York to a Norwegian-American father and a Japanese-American motherand the National Orchestra of Bordeaux-Aquitaine, of which he has served as music director since 2024, that distills the charm of Ravels brilliant orchestration. Schumanns Carnival was arranged for Nijinsky; only four movements are known today (though the track count is five due to the reprise of the German Waltz). The album concludes with Pictures at an Exhibition. You can fully savor Ravels world through Svensens distinctive interpretation, featuring majestic expressions and his unique use of portamento.Naxos Japan
