This work is so rich and 'picturesque' that it is hard to resist making an orchestral arrangement of it, and several composers wrote their own orchestration, the most famous of which being the one by Maurice Ravel (a master orchestrator). Nevertheless, the piano score leaves ample opportunity to trigger the creativity of the pianist, and the interpretation by Russian pianist Alexander Warenberg is one of great imagination and authority.
This release offers both the original piano version and the Ravel orchestration, filled up with the orchestral A Night on Bare Mountain and the more modest, but no less impressive piano cycle by Tchaikovsky - The Seasons.
