  • #ClassicsaDay #Classical1922 Week 3

    This release presents four ballet suites compiled from Massent operas. The most famous of these is “Thais,” the origin of Massenet’s greatest hit. The ballet music proves to be of similar quality, conveying the drama and the sensual nature of the title role, interspersed with moments of pious religiousity (there’s an extended sequence for solo […]
