Marilyn Horne & Leonard Bernstein perform Falla's El Amor Brujo [with the NYPO] and Ravel's Schéhérazade [with the ON de France] (Columbia Masterworks, 1978)

First listen to a new-to-me LP that I picked up a few weeks ago.

Initial impressions: I think the Ravel is a more persuasive than the Falla.  When it comes to El Amor Brujo, Stokowki & Shirley Verrett with the Philadelphia O are still tops in my book.

Not too convinced about "El Amor Brujo" overall .... btw but the performance by Charles Dutoit + OSDM on Decca from the early 1980's at least worth a try ...
