About this product
One of the most legendary conductors of the twentieth century, Charles Munch was, with Pierre Monteux, certainly the greatest French conductor. After a long activity in France, Munch then moved to the United States, becoming an American citizen and reaching the apex with the conduction of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, with which he recorded a large number of performances, especially symphonies, published by RCA. These 2 albums represent an important document of some live concert versions of his American activity and are completely unpublished. The sound quality is excellent.

Munch / Boston Symphony Orchestra - Charles Munch & the Boston Sym Orch [COMPACT DISCS] Boxed Set date 06/24/2014
By far, this is Ravel's richest and most sumptuously colorful work. Charles Munch, throughout his conducting career, gave sympathetic attention to the music of Ravel, and, by performing the entire ballet score in it's entirety, restored Daphnis and Chloe to a single rounded work, drawn together not only thematically, but by it's characteristic mood and color. Recorded Jan. 23-24, 1955 at Symphony Hall. Originally released in 1960.Mastered from the original 2-track master tapes and cut at 45 RPM by by Ryan K.
