While it remains a pity that Ansermet didn't venture further into the bleaker landscapes of Sibelius, less may well be more, and these epic recordings of the Second and Fourth symphonies, together with a raw reading of Tapiola are collected together on CD for the first time. The mood of desolation continues with the Paris Conservatoire Orchestra's recording of Rachmaninov's hypnotic tone poem The Isle of the Dead.

A Decca Eloquence 2-CD set in the Decca Ansermet Legacy series.

Composers:

Rachmaninov, Sibelius.

Conductors:

Ernest Ansermet.

L'Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, Paris Conservatoire Orcheatra.
