CD Reviews

The Nutcracker to end all Nutcrackers

05/01/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"As you would expect, Mravinsky and his team locate a hundred times more passion and intensity in this music than any western orchestra. This is not the standard suite of movements, but Mravinsky's own selection of numbers,and all the more interesting for that. Francesca is an added bonus. If you don't love this CD, you can't love Tchaikovsky!"
