Description: Robert Craft Conducts Under the Supervision of Igor Stravinsky Chant Du Rossignol / Danses Concertantes / Abraham and Issac / Requiem Canticles (Igor Stravinsky Edition, SONY) From Music Web International: Robert Craft conducts under the supervision of the composer. Song of the Nightingale in its format as symphonic poem is a blast of hard and brilliant life - like The Firebird but injected with steely deliberation. Danses Concertantes is lively and buoyant but why were the five movements not separately tracked? The Epitaphium is again dissonant and distinguished by a plangent harp contribution suggesting dark fathoms. The Double Canon for string quartet is in memoriam Raoul Dufy. It is solemn and again dissonant as is the Sacred Ballad - Abraham and Isaac. Anger floods in for Variations - written for Aldous Huxley - in memoriam. The Requiem Canticles is in nine movements here each accorded its own track. Dissonance and angst are shafts shot through this music although in Interlude (CD22 tr. 11) a more smiling countenance shines equivocally. At least it shines.
