In fact, Stokowski's arrangement have turned out to be so effective that they're actually being played and recorded by other conductors now. So there! As for the remainder of the program, the \"Poem of Ecstasy\" already sounds like a Stokowski transcription anyway--he simply owned the piece- -while the \"Firebird\" has a lot more Romantic sheen than it usually does. A great memento of one of music's true originals. --David Hurwitz\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000004264\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B000004264.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Modest Mussorgsky|Leopold Stokowski|Igor Stravinsky|Alexander Scriabin\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
