Tchaikovsky’s orchestral suites are the least known of his orchestral works. These performances by Victor Julien-Laferrière and the Orchestre Consuelo show how the rediscovery provides an insight into the stylistic resources of the composer, who explored the possibilities of a free form. From fugues to old dances, not to mention the use of Russian folk themes, Tchaikovsky’s signature is always recognizable for its specificity, its variety and its inexhaustible orchestral inventiveness.
