莫里斯•拉威尔在重新编排管弦乐方面可谓无人能敌。他应芭蕾舞团的依托改编了夏布里埃充满活力,振奋人心的《Menuet pompeux》和舒曼的《狂欢节》。应出版商Jean Jobert的要求,他重新编排了自己的好友德彪西的《Sarabande et Danse》。 拉威尔改编的穆索尔斯基的《Pictures at an Exhibition》,使用了一个非常大型乐团,展现了俏皮,奇幻的音乐场景。
本专辑中的音乐作品由莱纳德•斯拉特金指挥,莱纳德•斯拉特金个子不高(只有1.60米),但气度不凡,他熟悉乐队的名个声部特性,善于调动和平衡声部的整体效果,能够让乐队发出浑然似天成的精彩音响,是当代世界乐坛上最富实力的一位明星指挥。
