The album represents Mäkelä’s second recording with his French orchestra and follows the success of his first installment, featuring Stravinsky's pivotal ballets scores L'Oiseau de feu and Le Sacre du printemps: "In these richly detailed and technically demanding scores, his orchestra sounds both glamorous and immaculate, complemented by a detailed yet well-balanced recording" (BBC Music Magazine).
Reviews
Petrushka comes home. To Paris if not the Théâtre du Châtelet. Following on from Klaus Mäkelä’s handsome coupling of Stravinsky’s Rite and Firebird ballets (5/23) the headline feature of this terrific Petrushka is characterisation. It’s a performance full of animation and incident and from the Orchestre de Paris and their impressive line-up of wind soloists a dancer’s sensibility in the way the work’s cast of characters are drawn and move. ... The Debussy couplings are equally fine. Jeux, of course, is not in the least about tennis but rather seduction. ... It positively shimmers with playful interactive colours. In essence this is the most elaborate and protracted foreplay in the history of music. Edward Seckerson
