Ernest Chausson: Symphony in B-flat (1890)

This piece has actually fared pretty well on record over the years. (Munch, Monteux, Paray, Ansermet and Dutoit, among others, recorded it.) I’ve never heard it live, though, nor, I’m willing to bet, will I ever.

Paul Paray conducts the Detroit Symphony.
