Another Testament to Great Reissues.......2003-10-06
In this era of homogenized classical collections, it is great to see a label like Testament rescue gems from the EMI/Columbia vaults and reissue them on CD. And were it not for Testament, the conductor Desire-Emile Inghelbrecht would be a footnote in the history books. They have done a great service to classical collectors by making five CDs of Inghelbrecht's performances available (though only two are currently in print). While Inghelbrecht was at his best with Debussy (he was a close personal friend of the composer's), he also shined with other classics of the French repertoire. Here the conductor interprets Berlioz's "Le Carnival Romain" Overture and excerpts from "La Damnation de Faust" with the London Philharmonic (both 1956), and excerpts from Bizet's "Carmen" and Delibes' "Lakme" (both 1954), Ravel's "Une Barque sur l'ocean" and "Rapsodie espagnole" (both 1955) with Orchetsre National de la Radiodiffusion Francaise. They are all mono recordings but Inghelbrecht produces glowing results. I am certainly glad I discovered Inghelbrecht for myself, and it is yet another "testament" to a great reissue program that I did.
