Olivier Messiaen: Turangalila-Symphonie (1948) Mvt. 1 Orchestre de lOpera Bastille, dir. Myung-Whun chung, soloists: Yvonne Loriod - piano, Jeanne Loriod Ondes Martenot Messiaen wrote the following words about this recording of Turangalila-Symphonie: After hearing around two hundred performances of this work, some small changes have been suggested to me. The magnificent version of Turangalila-Symphonie that has now been achieved by Myung-Whun Chung takes account of these modifications, and answers perfectly to all my desires. These are the correct tempos, the correct dynamics, the right feelings and the right joy! Coming after the many excellent interpretations that we already know, this new version, superb from every point of view, can be considered henceforth the definitive account.
