This year marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Pierre Boulez (1925/3/26-2016/1/15). Boulez, who studied composition with Messiaen, was a cutting-edge avant-garde composer. However, his 1960s recording of "The Rite of Spring" with the Orchestre National de la Radiodiffusion Française for the Concert Hall Society won the Disc Grand Prix. This led to an increase in his conducting activities. This CD features his specialty, French music, a collection of orchestral works by Ravel. Please refer to photo 2 for the tracklist and the orchestras that performed (the New York Philharmonic and the Cleveland Orchestra). Import CD, no Japanese commentary. The CD is in good condition. Thank you for your consideration.
