A very attractive programme. The Franck has a wonderfully luminous, gravely eloquent quality, while the ''Queen Mab scherzo'' is given extraordinary delicacy and precision. Carnaval romain's virtuosity is excitingly realized, but Danse macabre is played at a curiously slow tempo. Ravel's Daphnis Suite rather lacks colour and atmosphere, but has impressive clarity and balance: L'apprenti sorcier, by contrast, has colour and atmosphere as well as superlative playing. '
