Why This CD Matters
This recording brings together several of Fauré’s most beloved orchestral works, including the elegant Pavane and selections from Pelléas et Mélisande. The performances by the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields under Neville Marriner highlight Fauré’s refined orchestration and lyrical French Romantic style.
Collector Note
1983 West German CD release on Argo featuring the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields conducted by Neville Marriner, with William Bennett as flute soloist. Early West German Argo classical CDs remain sought after by collectors of digital-era classical recordings.
