Firebird/petrushka - Igor Stravinsky - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

The two works on this disc were conducted by the late Klaus Tennstedt who had a long and close association with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, including serving as Principal Conductor from 1983–87. Tennstedt rarely conducted ballet music, but his physical exuberance shines through in these rare recordings.
