Although music lovers with an interest in out-of-print scores may have been able to get hold of some of Marie Jaëll’s piano music, her orchestral music has not been heard since its first performance. The first recordings of four major orchestral works add up to an unexpected study of a composer whose instrument of choice might not have been, as was commonly believed, the piano – on which the virtuoso excelled in her first period of activity from 1855 to 1870 – but that ‘king of instruments’, the orchestra.
