Two superb strikingly original works by one of the most gifted composers of the French School: Pelléas et Mélisande Op. 80 a suite for orchestra written after Fauré's incidental music for the drama by Maurice Maeterlinck; and the enormously popular Pavane Op. 50 one of the most performed short orchestral works in the repertoire.Reprint of the J.
