For the third volume of his cycle of Ravel's orchestral works with the Orchestre National de Lyon, conductor Leonard Slatkin has done well to group all of Ravel's orchestrations together. Of course the concluding item on the program, Ravel's version of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition, may be his best-known orchestral piece of all outside of Boléro, but that's not the attraction here. If you're wondering about the "Ravel-Slatkin" credit for the orchestration, only a 100-second recurrence of the "Promenade" theme (track 18), newly restored to the work, involves Slatkin as orchestrator. The rest is a competent, but unremarkable Pictures at an Exhibition. The fun lies in the music up to that point, none of which is the remotest bit common. The four pieces from Robert Schumann's Carnaval, Op. 9, are all that survive of a larger group commissioned by Vaslav Nijinsky, and they're enough to make you mourn what was lost of this exquisitely Gallic interpretation of a German classic. Sample the colors of the "Valse allemande" (track five). The two Debussy orchestrations are likewise fascinating musical meetings of minds, and the "Menuet pompeux" from the Dix pièces pittoresques of Chabrier is a brilliantly humorous curtain-raiser. These are all delightful performances that play to the strengths of Slatkin and his Lyonnais collaborators, and you owe it to yourself to enjoy them.
