Description:

Music Director Titiati and the Deutsches Symphonieorchester Berlin will begin their second term this September 2018. Their second album is an all-French follow-up to their previous album featuring Debussy and Faure. Kozenner again takes part in this album. In "Daphnis et Chloe," Ticciati's exquisite control of detail is brilliant, delicately and dynamically depicting the beautiful dawn to the colorful vibrancy of life. In the "Noble and Sentimental Waltz," Ticchiati's graceful yet rhythmic music clearly presents the texture of the work, allowing the listener to fully appreciate Ravel's unique world of colors. The songs by Duparc, which Ravel called "the work of a genius," are famous only for their piano accompaniment, but several of them were arranged by Ravel for orchestra, and all of them are particularly attractive for their gorgeous orchestration.Not only are the performance recordings rare, but the chemistry between these and Kojenner's warm voice is wonderful.
