Recordings of Igor Stravinsky's great ballets in their original orchestral versions are numerous, and piano transcriptions are increasingly found on disc, though these different presentations are usually released under separate covers and seldom side by side in a box set. Because Dennis Russell Davies is equally gifted as a conductor and a pianist, and has mastered the technical and interpretive difficulties of L'Oiseau de feu, Pétrouchka, and Le Sacre du printemps, he makes the orchestral and keyboard performances cohere and complement each other in this remarkable four-CD box set. Performing the orchestral scores with the Sinfonieorchester Basel, and the piano reductions with his wife and musical partner, Maki Namekawa, Davies supplies the clarity and rigor demanded by these challenging works, while exploiting all the coloristic possibilities. The orchestral recordings are vibrant and lush, while the piano interpretations are notable for incisive attacks, nuanced phrasing, and clean textures, which Davies and Namekawa deliver meticulously. Davies uses his own transcription for piano four hands of L'Oiseau de feu, which he prepared from Stravinsky's solo piano arrangement, and the published piano four hands arrangements of Pétrouchka and Le Sacre du printemps, which have long since left the ballet rehearsal room to become staples of the recital hall. Highly recommended.
