Ballet Suite No. 3 (1952) • • (I) Waltz (The Human Comedy) • (II) Gavotte (The Human Comedy) • (III) Dance (The Limpid Stream) • (IV) Elegy (The Human Comedy) • (V) Waltz (The Limpid Stream) • (VI) Galop (The Limpid Stream) • • Composer: Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975) • Orchestra: Russian Philharmonic Orchestra • • Ballet Suite No. 3 (1952) is derived from two sources. The incidental music for Pavel Sukhotin's 1934 production of Balzac's The Human Comedy yields the lively opening Waltz, a fetching Gavotte, which could almost pass as a mid-century reorchestration of Delibes or Messager, and an Elegy, whose main melody ranks among Shostakovich's most personable melodic inspirations. Before that, The Limpid Stream provides a Dance which recalls - or rather anticipates - the famous Galop from Kabalevsky's ballet The Comedians, as well as the final two numbers: a Waltz, which is the essence of the 'light music' aesthetic, and a Galop which propels the suite to a suitably energetic finish. • http://www.naxosdirect.com/title/8.55...
