Wagner
Anatol Liadov (1855 - 1914)
The Enchanted Lake, Op. 62

Like several other composers (e.g. Chopin, Grieg - and Peter Warlock, from whom we hear later) Liadov was at his best in small forms. "The Enchanted Lake" is a sound-painting evoking the image of a still lake with mystical and magical powers. Such a lake appears often in Russian folklore - perhaps this could be the Swan Lake of Tchaikovsky's ballet? It is also subtitled "A Fairy Picture for Orchestra".
