Ravel / Canada's National Arts Centre Orchestra - Bounds Of Our Dreams - Music CD

The musicians on this album are some of the best in Canada. Pianist Alain Lefvre, Canada's National Arts Centre Orchestra, and it's conductor Alexander Shelley and composer Walter Boudreau have come together for the world premiere recording of Boudreau's masterful Concerto de l'asile, a tribute to the playwright and poet Claude Gauvreau (1925-1971). A musical summit that will mark the history of contemporary music! In addition to this concerto, you will hear the classic Shhrazade, Op. 35 by Nikolai Rimski-Korsakov. The orchestra and it's conductor unfold an epic tableau from One Thousand and One Nights as they conjure to life the brilliant and cunning Scheherazade who emerges victorious in her resistance against the evil Shahriar. Splendid!
