Description

This timeless gem is performed by LOrchestre de la Suisse Romande, conducted by Ernest Ansermet. This is a performance to be known as one of the greats. The composition, Three-Cornered Hat, was premiered by Ansermet, and with its lively rhythms, subtle narratives, dynamic development and vivid contrast and tone colors, this version is a masterly performance that none other appears able to exceed. The performance illustrates the ethnic taste that is rich in wild beauty in a truly vivid and dynamic way, while highlighting the lyricism of Fallas music in a sophisticated, uncompromising manner. The solo singing by the young Berganza is also worth a listen.
