5.0 out of 5 stars Light classics performed as if life depended on it, September 10, 2005

This review is from: Bizet: Symphony No. 1 / Offenbach: Orpheus in the Underworld Overture / Offenbach, Rosenthal: Gaite Parisenne / Suppé: Galatea Overture (Royal Edition No. 17) (Audio CD)

As an antidote to Arthur Fiedler, who conducted this kind of light classical fluff without the slightest imaginaiton, Bernstien rips into it with verve and buoyant joy. NOt to be missed, even if you think you've outgrown Offenbach and his ilk.
