Anatoly Liadov - Enchanted Lake, Op. 62

Anatoly Liadov Enchanted Lake, Op. 62 Though not completing the ballet score that could have announced him definitively to the world in 1909, Liadov was composing one of his most popular orchestral works that year. The Enchanted Lake is a gentle yet colorful fantasy miniature that immerses the listener in the subtleties of a moonlit stillness. It is based on a fairy tale, the font from which Liadov’s ideas often flowed, but doesn’t so much tell a story as depict a state of being. What little tension there
