Synopsis

Amazon.com
Charles Mackerras conveys the extraordinary color and spirit of this score better than anyone. And the recording, featuring an inspired Vienna Philharmonic playing within an inch of their collective lives, is electrifying. One of London's earliest digital efforts, it is also one of the label's best-sounding recordings from any era and any venue. --Ted Libbey

"I bought this disc for the performance of Sinfonietta. Of all the versions I've heard, this is by far the most stirring and exciting, and the recorded sound is superb."
