Although he became acquainted with all manner of schools and styles during his thorough studies in Vienna and Paris, it was invariably folk music that provided him with the most important source of inspiration. Thanks to their freshness and impressive thematic invention, the two Roumanian Rhapsodies have remained firm favorites to this day. Nothing in the music appears to demand great effort or mental struggle. The colorful mixture of lyrical and spirited passages seems completely natural and homogenous, offering sheer delight for the ears right up to the final chord. Enesco’s carefree hits serve as an ideal introduction to two orchestral heavyweights by Franz Liszt, which undoubtedly are to be counted as \”state of the art\” works in this particular genre. Antal Dorati conducts the London Symphony Orchestra with a firm hand and complete concentration – as is demanded by this tightly knit score – always managing to find the perfect balance between timbral force and transparency. Of course one can find elsewhere these compositions being performed faster, louder and with questionable sensational effects. But if you are looking for a faithful interpretation of the score, musicality and natural sound, then this is the recording for you. “I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, ‘This is one of my favorite Mercury recordings.’ I find the music light, fast-paced and wonderfully infectious. You just can’t help toe-tapping to this one…This is Classical Music for people who don’t think they like Classical Music. Great music making and NOT to be missed.” Recording = 9/10 Music = 9/10 – Richard Foster, Hi-Fi+, Issue 41, page 138 Artist Enesco / Liszt / Dorati Genre Classical Label Mercury Liv Pres Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP Condition New Country GER Track Listings George Enesco: Two Roumanian Rhapsodies, Opus II (No.1 in A Major/ No. 2 in D Major) Franz Liszt: Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 / Hungarian Rhapsody No. 3 Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Classical View Product Quick View Sibelius/Karajan Symphony No 5 – Finlandia Classical | Hi Q | 180g, 1LP Released 11th October 2011 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sibelius/Karajan Symphony No 5 – Finlandia £20.00 Genre: Classical Label: Hi Q SKU: HIQLP010 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 11th October 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Percy Whitlock Organ Sonata (SACD) Classical | Base 2 Music | SACD Released 7th October 2022 £17.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Percy Whitlock Organ Sonata (SACD) £17.00 Genre: Classical Label: Base 2 Music SKU: Base2-09 Formats: SACD Released Date: 7th October 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Various Occident & Orient Classical | Berliner Meister Schallplatten | 180g, 1LP Released 12th November 2012 £37.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Occident & Orient £37.00 Genre: Classical Label: Berliner Meister Schallplatten SKU: BMS1203 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 12th November 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Simon Standage, The English Concert, Trevor Pinnock Antonio Vivaldi: The Four Seasons Classical | Deutsche Grammophon | 180g, 1LP Released 27th July 2018 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Simon Standage, The English Concert, Trevor Pinnock Antonio Vivaldi: The Four Seasons £20.00 Genre: Classical Label: Deutsche Grammophon SKU: 4835216 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 27th July 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Anne-Sophie Mutter The Club Album – Live from Yellow Lounge Classical | Deutsche Grammophon | 180g, 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 28th August 2015 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Anne-Sophie Mutter The Club Album – Live from Yellow Lounge £26.00 Genre: Classical Label: Deutsche Grammophon SKU: 4795299 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 28th August 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Borodin -OSR/Ansermet Symphonies Nos 2 & 3 Classical | Speakers Corner | 180g, 1LP Released 23rd September 2006 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Borodin -OSR/Ansermet Symphonies Nos 2 & 3 £34.00 Genre: Classical Label: Speakers Corner SKU: CS6126 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 23rd September 2006 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Charles Munch, Boston Symphony Orchestra Ravel: Bolero Classical | Analogue Productions | 1LP, 200g Released 20th July 2018 £38.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Charles Munch, Boston Symphony Orchestra Ravel: Bolero £38.00 Genre: Classical Label: Analogue Productions SKU: AAPC1984 Formats: 1LP, 200g Released Date: 20th July 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Mozart/Stuttgart Winds Gran Partita – Serenade in B-flat major Classical | Tacet | 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 28th August 2014 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Mozart/Stuttgart Winds Gran Partita – Serenade in B-flat major £24.00 Genre: Classical Label: Tacet SKU: TACETL209 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 28th August 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ferit Odman Dameronia With Strings Classical | Equinox Music | 180g, 1LP Release Date TBC £TBC Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Ferit Odman Dameronia With Strings £TBC Genre: Classical Label: Equinox Music SKU: EQN02 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View George Szell / Cleveland Orchestra Schubert: Symphony No. 9 Classical | Warner Classics | 1LP Released 26th May 2023 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders George Szell / Cleveland Orchestra Schubert: Symphony No. 9 £21.00 Genre: Classical Label: Warner Classics SKU: 5054197491061 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 26th May 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Classical Start again
