R. Strauss: Don Quixote – Ravel: Bolero
Released to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra – founded by Daniel Barenboim and the late Edward Said – this album couples Ravel's hypnotic 'Boléro' with with Richard Strauss's vividly pictorial tone poem 'Don Quixote'. Barenboim conducts, with cellist Kian Soltani and viola player Miriam Manasherov taking solo roles in the Strauss.
