Newstalgia Weekend Gramophone with the music of Jacuqes Ibert. Capriccio for Ten Instruments as performed by members of the Student Orchestra of the Paris Conservatory, conducted by Louis Martin.

Jacques Ibert at work


Continuing with the collection of French Radio transcriptions, here is a recording (a studio concert) featuring members of the Student Orchestra of the Paris Conservatory conducted by Louis Martin in a performance of Capriccio for Ten Players by Jacques Ibert.

Judging from the details on the label, I would guess it's from around 1954-1955 and it offers some very distinctive playing styles that have all but disappeared from orchestras around the world.

An interesting piece of music fascinatingly played and certainly a small slice of history.
