Visions of Prokofiev
RecommendedLisa Batiashvili (violin)
Chamber Orchestra of Europe, Yannick Nézet-Séguin
Nézet-Séguin cues a fine-spun accompaniment at the start and close of No. 1. Whereas he, the COR and Batiashvili collude for a carping attack at the centre of the Scherzo…She perfectly captures... — More…

RecommendedBacquier, Viala, Gautier, Dubosc & Bastin
Choeurs et Orchestre de l'Opéra national de Lyon, Kent Nagano
