Sibelius' Second Symphony is both powerful and eloquent, culminating in one of his greatest melodies, blazing with optimism and serenity. The elemental dance rhythms of Roussel's Bacchus et Ariane Suite spring to life under Fran莽ois-Xavier Roth, Associate Guest Conductor of the 成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales, whose performances have been earning critical plaudits.
