KNUSSEN Songs and Sea Interlude from Where the Wild Things Are
MUSSORGSKY Pictures at an Exhibition
Ravel’s suave sense of orchestral color brings classic fairy tale characters bounding to life, and his arrangement of Mussorgsky’s spirited art walk illuminates every nuance of those searing images. Two young Britons known for their boundary-breaking collaborations lead a romp through highlights of the fanciful opera by their compatriot Oliver Knussen, who channels all the mischief and wonder of Maurice Sendak’s beloved tale of self-discovery. Let your imagination run wild in this garden of sonic delights!
