Paul Paray was an appealing artist who achieved wonders with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra in the late 1950s. His interpretations were swift, lean, elegant, and sharply focused. It's a style of conducting that has all but vanished today, and these two performances bear eloquent testimony to his talent as an interpreter.
