From Foreign Lands;

Moritz Moszkowski (1854-1925) is most known for his scintillating piano compositions. He also composed an opera, a full-length ballet, three orchestral suites, a symphony (still in manuscript form), songs, concertos, and chamber music -- almost all of which remain neglected or forgotten. How unfortunate!
Using From Foreign Lands as a starting point, an intriguing program of, largely, first recordings of Moszkowski's most memorable and melodious orchestral compositions has been assembled. This delightful program is the San Francisco Ballet Orchestra's fourth release with Reference Recordings. The San Francisco Ballet Orchestra is internationally recognized as one of the foremost ballet orchestras in the world. Recorded at Skywalker Sound by GRAMMY® award winning engineer Keith O. Johnson.

"Dancing in From Foreign Lands is like taking the audience on a joyful European tour." San Francisco Ballet principal dancer, Pascal Molat.
