Maurice Ravel - Toccata from Le Tombeau de Couperin (orchestral version)
Loading...

This orchestral version is very rare, made by conductor Zoltan Kocsis. I think it's very well done, just as imaginative as Ravel's own orchestrations. The paintings are made by Gustave Caillebotte.

Oh ok one more time...!

I keep hitting the replay button.

This orchestration is brilliant. I can't even begin imagine trying to orchestrate such a piece, but the melody especially is done with such imagination.
-
Oh, that's good. I can't imagine anyone presuming to improve on Ravel's own orchestrations.

@ByzantineCalvinist If you mean Hungaroton Classic HCD 32106 your question is irrelevant. Kocsis orchestrated Fugue and Toccata only. The rest of the cycle is Ravel's own.
-
I think I found the recording you mean on amazon.com and amazon.ca. I don't know why Kocsis would want to re-orchestrate the Prélude, Forlane, Menuet and Rigaudon movements, if that is indeed what he has done. Ravel`s orchestrations can hardly be topped, I should think.

@ByzantineCalvinist I don't believe so, but it's on Amazon, and probably on Spotify.

Is this posted on youtube? I'd love to hear it.

Anyone not familiar should also check out Zoltan Kocsis' orchestration of the fugue; really clarifies the lines and is just ridiculously beautiful.

Which orchestra/record is this? It's just FANTASTIC!

@janpeterdegraaff This is Zoltan Kocsis himself directing Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra, and the CD is called "Orchestrations by Zoltan Kocsis".
