The Grammy award winning Orpheus Chamber Orchestra presents an album of rarely heard
and underappreciated pieces by Stravinsky, Orpheus and Danses Concertantes.
Both pieces are inspired by dance, either directly with Orpheus, which was set to
choreography by George Balanchine, or abstractly, as is the case with the Danses
Concertantes. This album is a treat for anyone interested in hearing the more stylized,
neo-classical side of Stravinsky.
