A most relevant classic thanks to Markevitch’s fiery and electric direction and the sheer excellence of the Orchestre Lamoureux, which he directed at the time. The conductor of Russian descent is completely frantic, and perfectly conveys the visionary nature of this essential chapter of French romanticism. Listening to this version, one can fully grasp the modernity of Berlioz’s language, which lends itself to the most avant-garde staging, a paradox for a piece written for concerts rather than the stage. The sound recording, captured in the early days of triumphant stereophony, is simply extraordinary. © François Hudry/Qobuz
