Nicole Henriot, Pianist

Barber Medea's Meditation And Dance Of Vengeance

Boston Symphony Orchestra

Charles Munch, Conductor

RCA Victor LM-2197

1958

From Billboard - April 7, 1958: A clean-cut first performance by a major orchestra and soloist of the tricky, expressive Prokofieff piano work. Pianist Henriot's performance is often technically brilliant. Barber's "Medea" on the reverse side is the 1955 version, which is the composer rescored. It's handled with fire and passion by conductor Munch. A Victor "Save On Records" special.
