Conductor

Ernest Ansermet

About

‘Ansermet is not only one of the best conductors, but one of the greatest thinker sof our time.’ – Benjamin Britten

This set offers a comprehensive selection of Ansermet's stereo recordings. Astonishingly, his first stereo recordings date back to 1954, and all his recordings since have been of the highest quality. Ansermet's warm and beautiful readings with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, which he founded in 1918, command respect and admiration.

This compilation offers a colourful panorama of Ansermet's interpretations of the French and Russian repertoire, which is undoubtedly his ‘forte’, but it goes further, encompassing his sound and fascinating approach to the German repertoire.
