Of these seven selections, only one - the Glière Russian Sailors Dance - has appeared on CD before. Stokowski's tenure of principal guest conductor with the New York Philharmonic had ended with the conclusion of the 1949-1950 season, so the bulk of these recordings fall into a grey area of his career where Stokowski held no regular conducting post; however, his name was of such value to RCA Victor that they recorded him anyway. Although Stokowski once announced he was to resurrect Mussorgsky's original 1869 score of A Night on Bald Mountain in the end he simply touched up the familiar Rimsky-Korsakov version, which became the basis of the music he used in Disney's Fantasia (1940).

Mussorgsky: A Night on Bare Mountain; Rimsky-Korsakov: Russian Easter Festival Overture; etc. Import, Hybrid SACD. That's what befalls A Night on Bald Mountain, delivered in a garish retouching that feels cartoonish, no surprise since Stokowski used his own arrangement in Disney's fantasia (it's closer to what Beecham called a derangement).

STOKOWSKI’s orchestration of Night on the Bare (or Bald) Mountain is known to millions as the accompaniment to the Witches’ Sabbath sequence in Disney’s Fantasia, for which he made his own arrangement in 1940. His orchestral version of Pictures dates from the year before, and differs from Ravel’s famous transcription, both in omitting two of the numbers from the piano original (Tuileries and The Market at Limoges) and in attempting to find more idiomatically Russian colours for the work’s orchestral clothing
