"Play through this superb collection and you can't help but believe that Stokowski was the heart of the ballet... and you'll never hear such vibrant, wide-ranging sound." American Record Guide
"Yet more sheer delight for those who admire Stokowski’s command and occasional impudences—and the reissue of these performances remains technically impressive." Music and Vision Daily
Stokowski's compilations of favourite ballet music were highly successful when released in the 1940s and 1950s. This digital remastering also commemorates the anniversaries of his birth and death dates.
