About This Item
Louis Ferdinand Herold was born to write for the theatre. This much is obvious from these present recordings. Herold's many theatrical works these days are rarely performed, but the brilliant orchestration, easy-to-remember motives, and a touch of amiable exoticism are the main ingredients that make these performances a InchclassicInch of early 19th-century French instrumental music.
