BACKGROUND
This selection places a beautiful and idiomatic performance of "Les Noces" by Stravinsky in an engaging and attractive context of traditional Russian wedding music. However, its main appeal to the programme presenter is the fact that all that is required is to put the CD on at the start of track 3 and take it off at the end of track 8.
