Handel: Water Music (1995) more music like this

performed by London Festival Orchestra, Ross Pople (conductor)
composed by George Frederick Handel

Conductor Ross Pople's London Festival Orchestra consists of a group of top players brought together to try new things and see new places -- they've toured in such exotic locales as Paraguay. Their version of Handel's venerable Water Music is in no way shocking, but it's quite distinctive. Pople removes the sheen of British triumphalism that hangs ...

composed by Johann Christian Bach

One thing that has become apparent in the rescue operation involving the reputation of Johann Christian Bach is that with him lay a number of undiscovered secrets about the development of Western music in the eighteenth century. For one thing, Bach was the king of the sinfonia concertante, a stepchild of the Baroque concerto grosso that did not ...

Mendelssohn: Symphony No. 4 "Italian" Symphony No. 1; Hebrides Overture (1996) more music like this

performed by London Symphony Orchestra, Ross Pople (conductor)
composed by Felix Mendelssohn

Internal alarms should probably go off anytime you pick up an album that doesn't allow you to see what the orchestra is performing until after you've bought it and opened it. In the case of this RCA album of Mendelssohn's First and Fourth symphonies, we have a re-release (originally on the Arte Nova label in 1995) of the London Festival Orchestra ...

performed by London Festival Orchestra, Ross Pople (conductor)
composed by Edvard Grieg

Back in the '50s when the best English classical record companies had their own in-house studio symphonies, Decca's was called the London Festival Orchestra. Under music director Ross Pople, the LFO incorporated independently in 1980 -- and once again achieved an international reputation as a studio orchestra. During the digital surge in the late ...

Mendelssohn: Twelve String Symphonies (2004) more music like this

performed by London Festival Orchestra, Ross Pople (conductor)
composed by Felix Mendelssohn

While Mendelssohn was a mere teenager when he wrote them, there is no bad music in any of his 12 string symphonies. Some are more memorable than others and all of them taken at once may be too much of a good thing, but taken a disc at a time, there is no more charming series of symphonies in all European art music. Each one is distinctive, each ...

Igor Stravinsky: L'Histoire du Soldat (1996) more music like this

performed by Jason O'Mara, London Festival Orchestra, Ross Pople (conductor)
composed by Igor Stravinsky

Ross Pople leads the London Festival Orchestra in a complete performance of L'histoire du soldat, featuring actor Jason O'Mara on all the dramatic parts. The decision to use a single performer rather than the three specified by the composer changes the character of the piece, but for a concert performance or recording, it makes good dramatic sense ...
