George Antheil (1900-1959) Ballet Mecanique performed by the Philadelphia Virtuosi Chamber Orchestra conducted by Daniel Spalding. Recorded October 4-5, 1999 at the County Ballroom, the War Memorial, Trenton, New Jersey. Antheil's musical reputation rests on this ballet which represented the climax of his period with the French 'avant-garde'. It achieved massive notoriety through it's bizarre orchestra of pianos, percussion, electric buzzers \u0026amp; airplane propellers. Musically it's one of the masterpieces of the early 20th century \u0026amp; culturally represents a fine example of the \"spirit of the time\" that was prevalent in Paris during the early 1920's.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Ballet MacAnique \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Serenade for String Orchestra, No. 1: Allegro \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Serenade for String Orchestra, No. 1: Andante Molto \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Serenade for String Orchestra, No. 1: Vivo \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Symphony for Five Instruments: Allegro \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Symphony for Five Instruments: Lento \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Symphony for Five Instruments: Presto \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Concert for Chamber Orchestra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
