Stephane DeneveAbout
Roussel’s experiences as a lieutenant in the French Navy first introduced him to Eastern influences, and the ‘opera-ballet’ Padmâvatî was inspired by his later visit to the ancient city of Chittor in Rajasthan state of western India. It uses aspects of Indian music to evoke this city’s legendary siege by the Mongols.
Stéphane Denève is the newly-appointed Chief Conductor of the Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra (SWR) and, since 2005, Music Director of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra.
This is the fifth and final volume in Stéphane Denève and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra’s acclaimed survey of Roussel’s orchestral works. The first disc of their survey of the works of Albert Roussel for Naxos won a Diapason d’Or de l’année in 2007.
“An excellent disc, splendidly and idiomatically performed and a superb advertisement for composer, conductor and orchestra. Highly recommended.” - Gramophone on Vol.4 (8572135)
