Lorin Maazel's legendary performance of Firebird Suite.......2005-09-25
This compact disc re-releases two of Lorin Maazel's and the Berlin Radio Symphony's albums from the 1950s and 1960s. The CD features music from three ballets inspired by folklore and folk melodies - Miguel de Falla's El Amor Brujo (gypsy music) and Three-Cornered Hat (Andalusian folk dances) and Igor Stravinsky's Firebird (classic Russian fairy tale).
The two de Falla pieces are beautifully performed with Grace Bumbry supplying the rich, exotic vocals in El Amor Brujo. But the highlight of the CD is Maazel's outstanding 1957 performance of Firebird Suite. Considered by some to be the definitive performance of Firebird, this recording stirs one's emotions from the slow, subtle tones of the introduction to the nostalgic longing of the Princesses ronde, the frenzied Kashchei's dance and the haunting lullaby, right through to the finale where the predominate strains of the foregoing sections intertwine and come together in a dizzying, exhilarating climax. This re-release allows a whole new generation of listeners to experience this fine performance. It comes with my highest recommendations.
An Excellent Re-Release.......2001-12-01
This album is a release of works from the mid 60's (the Falla pieces) and the late 50's (Stravinsky's "Firebird"). The remastering was excellently done on the Falla pieces, but the "Firebird" is showing its age (an occasional tape pop, but then I listen with headphones, so it is noticeable). I used to stay away from DG CD releases whenever possible, because I found them to have a "harsh" sound (unlike their LP releases, which I would always buy when available), but they seemed to have gotten their act together. All three pieces were digital processed to remove the analog tape hiss (well done, I might add) and to add additional stereo separation (also well done) to yield a very enjoyable album. I bought this for the Falla pieces to replace an LP I bought in 1974 (the same recording) and I am very happy with the results. Buy this one if you are looking for a good Falla "El Amor Brujo (The Love Spell)" or a good non-vocal "Hat". Skip this one if you are looking for a "Firebird".
Curiously, even though the "Firebird" has top billing, it really is relegated to a tertiary position on the album.
A stunning disk.......2001-03-29
Clearly this version of the firebird suite deserves all the praise it has recieved over the years. A crisp performance, up to tempo, rehearsed to perfection by a tremendous orchestra. The de Falla peices are well played too, Grace Bumbry is superb in El amor brujo. These recordings forshadowed the illustrious career that Maazel was embarking on, and they're a chance to hear a young, infectously vibrant interpritation - the sort of performance that made him famous.
Get This For Falla, Not Firebird.......2000-07-21
This release in the DG Originals series combines the music from three ballets, two of Falla's and Stravinsky's "Firebird Suite." Quite frankly, there isn't much similar about the music other than the conductor/orchestra in these particular performances (Maazel/Berlin RSO), and the fact that one of the Falla's ballets and "Firebird" were both written in 1919. Despite this the music is all wonderful. Jazz fans will recognize one of the excerpts from "El Amor Brujo" as "Will O' The Wisp," borrowed for the Miles Davis/Gil Evans collaboration "Sketches of Spain." Of course, Miles' version comes without the vocal talents of the lovely mezzosoprano Grace Bumbry. Since I was mostly familiar to this point with Falla transcripitons for guitar, these orchestral works are quite inspiring. The "Firebird" was recorded by conductor Maazel when he was only 27, and it apparently catapulted him to stardom. However, for my money I find Leonard Bernstein's and Ernset Ansermet's Firebirds to be more compelling. Bernstein in particular slows the tempo down to draw out certain parts of the finale, while Maazel keeps the pace up and embellisehes things with some bells (literally) and whistles that are unnecessary. If you are looking for this CD to be your definitive "Firebird Suite" recording, you've come to the wrong place in my opinion. If you want some terrific Falla recordings with "Firebird" thrown in as a bonus, get this while you can.

Why five stars, why not one million?.......2004-05-02
In the famous carrer of this swiss conductor there were many definitive performances. But if you make me pronounce for the first of them, I would mention this record.
The state of art is the term that better describes the spanish dionisiac passion that seems iluminate and engage to all the musician of the Suisse Romande.
All the orchestra that day seemed to be literally so enthusiastic, that gave their best of their craft and walked to the eternity.
Fire, glamorous histamina, passion, elegance, rapport, and a deep comittment with the Three cornered hat makes this record, one of the supreme treasures of its kind in XX century and throws to Ansermet to the rank of the supreme batton virtuosi.
Forget about any other record. Don't experience with other one. It wolud be a waste of time and money.
And thanks to the genius of Manuel de Falla for his contribution.
Fabulous Falla.......2003-07-18
This is a terrific CD of works by the Spanish composer Manuel De Falla by conductor Ernest Ansermet and the orchestra he founded, L'Orchestre de la Suisse Romande. Ansermet's golden-age stereo performances of El Amor Brujo (1955), La Vida Breve and El Sombrero de Tres Picos (both 1961) have to be counted among the finest recordings of these works ever made. In fact, it was Ansermet who conducted the premiere of El Sombrero de Tres Picos (The Three-Cornered Hat) in 1919. A mathematician prior to his life as a conductor, Ansermet had his critics as he was virtually self-taught, though he did study music as a youth. The mathematics background served him well in the studio as his early stereo recordings of everything from Falla and Stravisnky to Tchaikovsky and Haydn (see my reviews) are engineered to perfection, and often sound better than the recordings by so-called more famous conductors. But don't take my word for it, buy some Ansermet for yourself and see.
