Following a stream of requests – not least from the conductor himself! – we’ve releasing for the first time on CD internationally, Richard Bonynge’s first (1967/analogue) recording of ‘Giselle’. The enchanting score has even more spontaneity and bounce than Bonynge’s later digital remake for Decca.
‘…this is just the sort of release to fill that basic ballet gap in many collections’ ClassicsToday
‘…this version, with its distinctive Monte-Carlo sound, appropriately French in style, has a pleasing atmosphere of the theatre’
