| Philharmonie: Großer Saal, Berlin, D10785 Berlin, Germany Saturday 27-Sep-08 Berliner Philharmoniker - Sir Simon Rattle Most admirers of Maurice Ravel’s music probably haven’t heard that the elegant composer loved to steal away from parties or official events. But not for a quiet cigarette outside – his destination was the children’s playroom. Ravel was often found there, immersed in some game with the boys and girls, which he found much more enjoyable than courteous small talk. Although this is only a side note in the life of the extraordinary composer, it is extremely valuable when listening to his children’s opera L’Enfant et les sortilèges. Knowing how roguish Ravel sometimes was enables us to properly grasp the playful character of the piece and its imaginatively rhetorical exuberance. Considering all this, Simon Rattle is obviously the ideal conductor to perform the work. Next to this opus, Ravel’s ballet music for Ma Mère l’Oye sounds just as magical as the opera. | ||
