With the unique timbres of their period instruments and a superb Pleyel grand from 1892, conductor François-Xavier Roth and his orchestra Les Siècles explore some of Maurice Ravel’s major works. With pianist Cédric Tiberghien and baritone Stéphane Degout, two of the finest specialists in this repertory, this recording provides an opportunity to hear many aspects of Ravel’s colorful, kaleidoscopic world, from the youthful Pavane to the Piano Concertos to the song cycle Don Quichotte à Dulcinée.
