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 Fritz Reiner Strauss: Till Eulenspiegel/Death And Transfiguration Classical | Analogue Productions | 1LP, 200g Released 10th March 2017 £38.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Fritz Reiner Strauss: Till Eulenspiegel/Death And Transfiguration £38.00 Genre: Classical Label: Analogue Productions SKU: AAPC2077 Formats: 1LP, 200g Released Date: 10th March 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Linus Roth, London Symphony Orchestra & Thomas Sanderling Shostakovich & Tchaikovsky: Violin Concertos Classical | Challenge Classics | SACD Released 18th November 2016 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Linus Roth, London Symphony Orchestra & Thomas Sanderling Shostakovich & Tchaikovsky: Violin Concertos £14.00 Genre: Classical Label: Challenge Classics SKU: CC72689 Formats: SACD Released Date: 18th November 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Beethoven - CSO/Georg Solti Symphony No 9 Classical | Speakers Corner / Decca | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 17th September 2006 £59.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Beethoven - CSO/Georg Solti Symphony No 9 £59.00 Genre: Classical Label: Speakers Corner / Decca SKU: 6BB1212 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 17th September 2006 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View RIOPY [extended] BLISS Classical | Warner Classics | 1LP Released 18th November 2022 £28.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders RIOPY [extended] BLISS £28.00 Genre: Classical Label: Warner Classics SKU: 5054197178887 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 18th November 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kertész Dvorák Symphony No.9 Classical | Decca Classics | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 30th November 2016 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kertész Dvorák Symphony No.9 £20.00 Genre: Classical Label: Decca Classics SKU: 4830958 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 30th November 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Erland Cooper Music For Growing Flowers Classical | Mercury KX | 1LP Released 19th August 2022 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Erland Cooper Music For Growing Flowers £22.00 Genre: Classical Label: Mercury KX SKU: 4555741 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 19th August 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nikolaus Harnoncourt Walzer Revolution Classical | Sony Classical | 3LP Released 7th October 2016 £27.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nikolaus Harnoncourt Walzer Revolution £27.00 Genre: Classical Label: Sony Classical SKU: 8985342011 Formats: 3LP Released Date: 7th October 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Schubert Complete Trios For Piano, Violin And Cello Classical | Speakers Corner | 180g, 2LP Released 27th February 2011 £64.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Schubert Complete Trios For Piano, Violin And Cello £64.00 Genre: Classical Label: Speakers Corner SKU: PHILIPS8353934AY Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 27th February 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lambert All This Time Classical | Mercury KX | 1LP Released 10th March 2023 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lambert All This Time £20.00 Genre: Classical Label: Mercury KX SKU: 4826754 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 10th March 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Rachel Portman Beyond The Screen Classical | Sony Classical | 2LP Released 10th March 2023 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Rachel Portman Beyond The Screen £25.00 Genre: Classical Label: Sony Classical SKU: 19439936051 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 10th March 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Classical Start again
