Turning to virtuoso orchestras, the three versions that lead the field, the BPO and Karajan (DG), the Concertgebouw and Sir Colin Davis (Philips) and the Philadelphia and Muti (HMV), all enjoy the advantage of infinitely better recorded sound. There is no want of impact or detail but with those versions there is the greater homogeneity and finer blend to the orchestral texture missing from the disc offered here. Some readers may be more sympathetic to this as sound than I am, and they can be assured that there is some exciting playing and an atmospheric account (despite the sound) of the ''Action rituelle des ancetres''.'
