Detroit Symphony Orchestra and Paul Parray

I have to admit that I did NOT know who Paul Parray was until just a few days ago. There was an airing on radio of Paul Parray conducting Faust's Ballet Music. The recording sounded vibrant and crisp - new!!! The performance was amazing, something that I was only accustomed to hearing from great European orchestras.

A little research just floored me to find that this recording had to have come from Parray's tenure from 1952 to 1963 in Detroit.

It is GREAT to be pleasantly surprised as an old, cynical codger.
