Milhaud: La Creation Du Monde

This album is part of a series of twenty must-have titles from the Warner Classics catalog, featuring their original and well-known iconic covers. As a young man, Darius Milhaud travelled from France to Latin America and the United States. His experience of the New World inspired Le Boeuf sur le toit and Saudades do Brasil, with their exuberant and sinuous dance rhythms, and La Création du Monde, which sprang from his discovery of Harlem jazz. Who better to capture the thrills, wit and subtlety of these musical fusions than Leonard Bernstein?
