Ravel: Heure Espagnole, L' (Opéra de Lyon)
Ravel's love of clocks, automata and of Spain found a witty and colourful expression in this musical comedy. The tale of conjugal infidelity is full of brilliantly inventive music, shot through with Spanish flavour and the ticking and whirring of the clockmaker Torquemada's timepieces. At the centre of Philippe Sireuil's stylish production is Marie-Thérèse Keller who, as the unfaithful wife Concepción, is every bit as fiery, earthy and tantalising as Carmen. Louis Langrée conducts. This live recording comes from the Lyon National Opera.
