Karel Mark Chichon was Principal Conductor of the German Radio Philharmonic Orchestra Saarbrucken Kaiserslautern from 2011 to 2017; the programmes he presented during his seasons there were celebrated by the public and lauded by the critics in equal measure. One magnificent result of this period is the present recording with works by Stravinsky, Prokofiev, and de Falla. All are ballets whose rhythms made an enormously modern, almost revolutionary effect at the time; the dancers had quite a lot to learn about how to coordinate their movements to this music. For more than ten years now, the German Radio Philharmonic Orchestra has been an integral part of the German orchestral music scene which is like no other in the world. The orchestra was created following the merger of the Saarbrucken Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Radio Orchestra Kaiserslautern. As one of the ARD radio symphony orchestras, it performs at the orchestra’s resident locations in Saarbrucken and Kaiserslautern as well as participating in the Saarlandischer Rundfunk and the Sudwestrundfunk cultural programmes or giving concerts on the SR/SWR an dARTE television channels.
