ULLANTA DVD and CD UMW03-RI1(D): Limor Toren Conducts

This live recording features Limor Toren conducting (and performing violin solos for) Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, Grieg's Holmberg Suite, and Haydn's Farewell Symphony with the Southern California Chamber Ensemble. The multi-camera video on the DVD set shows how the Farewell Symphony is performed in beatiful candlelight that diminishes as the musicians leave the stage one by one...)
