Eiji Oue - Stravinsky: The Firebird Suite/ The Song of the Nightingale - Reference Recordings LP

200 Gram Vinyl, Half-Speed Mastered, Gatefold

The Minnesota Orchestra, conducted by Eiji Oue, performs two of Stravinsky's most colorful orchestral showcases in their first recordings with their dynamic music director. A protege of Seiji Ozawa and Leonard Bernstein, Oue brings vivid energy to The Firebird Suite and The Song of the Nightingale, captured in the spacious, you-are-there sound that made legendary engineer Keith O. Johnson famous. The CD edition was a 1997 Grammy nominee for Best Engineered, Classical. First time ever on LP.
