About this album

Werke Für Harfe Und Orchester is a refined showcase for Nicanor Zabaleta, one of the 20th century’s great harp virtuosos. This 1972 release brings together harp-and-orchestra music spanning Baroque, Classical, Romantic and modern styles, with works by Händel, Albrechtsberger, Ravel and Debussy. Zabaleta’s expressive control and technical ease make the harp sound both graceful and commanding, while Paul Kuentz and the Orchestre de Chambre Paul Kuentz provide elegant support throughout. The programme highlights the harp’s full expressive range and underlines Zabaleta’s role in raising its profile as a solo concert instrument.
