5.0 out of 5 stars First rate Stravinsky 11 April 2013
By Stephen Barber
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Early in his career Chailly recorded a good deal of Stravinsky and he showed as good grasp of the idiom as he has more recently displayed in the very different idiom of the German and Austrian symphonic tradition. These performances are finely played and recodred. The Petrushka is the 1947 revision and the Firebird is the 1945 suite which contains some items not in the usual 1919 one. I normally go for the complete Firebird ballet and original 1911 Petrushka but these performances are so good that I overlook my preferences to enjoy them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ooooo-eeee! 21 Jun 2007
By bonerfly - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
The first thing that you can't help but notice is the SPECTACULAR sound. You better have some Big Strong Woofers.

Whether on an audiophile or a small bookshelf system, this will be the Finest sounding CD in your collection.

I agree this is not the most savage Rite Of Spring ever recorded (Dorati in the 50s and Ancerl), But it is by far the most "musical".
Chailly and The Cleveland Orchestra were at the height of their power when this was recorded in 1985.

Chailly is known for his attention to detail and coaxing beautiful instrumental tone from his players.
Here he exceeds all before him in The Rite Of Spring which has never been known for
it's "beauty".

He takes it at an only SLIGHTLY slower tempi than most and brings out, with great clarity, all the "beautiful" inner detail missing from most performances.
You can hear everything within the score that has been "muddied" in most other recordings.

Don't get me wrong, This is still a VERY volatile, exciting and thrilling performance and the only thing softening the "savagery" is the gorgeous instrumental tone and the extreme clarity of the recorded sound.

This critique also applies to the great Concertgebouw which is in top form in the other ballets on this CD. And Jeu des Carte may be the finest ever committed to Disc.

To me, the most important combination of Performance, conducting and sound quality has to make this one of the best Stravinsky CD available.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top Notch Stravinsky 26 Mar 2012
By oldfolks - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Because the CD catalog had grown so large in the late 80's and 90's, and because the major record companies were issuing new and old CD's like they were going out of style, many really fine recordings got lost in the shuffle. This was especially true of young conductors who were just beginning to make their mark. These recordings are a case in point. Chailly's recordings of Petrouchka with the Concertgebouw (1993) and Le Sacre du Printemps with the Cleveland Orchestra (1985) are competitive with the best recordings ever made of these works. What really sets them apart, however, is the phenomenal sound. If you have a good stereo rig with speakers that have a good bottom end, these recordings will blow you away. My only disappointment in this set is that Chailly did not record the complete Firebird ballet, only the 1945 suite. The two shorter ballets that fill out this set are also extremely well done. Highly recommended.

I have several renditions of this music. This is my favorite and it sounds extremely good played through my high-end tube gear.
