Matthias Pintscher conducts a sensuous all-Ravel program that features a rare complete performance of one of Ravel's most ravishing scores, the lush and romantically yearning Daphnis and Chloe, as well as his orchestration of Debussy's elegant Sarabande and lively Danse. French pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet, a virtuoso of “dazzling technique and passion” (The Straits Times), performs Ravel's dark and powerful Concerto for the Left Hand.
