A Wizard, a True Star is the fourth album by American musician Todd Rundgren, released on March 2, 1973. Its music was a significant departure from his previous album Something/Anything? (1972), which consisted largely of straightforward ballads. This LP featured in "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die". This 45th Anniversary Reissue, never before available on SACD, is the definitive sounding reissue of this landmark album.

Candide, West Side Story, The Phantom of the Opera, we have selected some of the most beautiful scores of the english speaking repertoire. They take their inspiration in the great stories of litterature, magnified by their composers. These works have been crossing the centuries and create a powerful fascination. The music with flights of lyricism is full of feelings. The sometimes tragic characters intensely portray the challenges that can shape our personalities. Thus, for the characters of Cunégonde, Maria, Christine, the way is resolutely the one of sincerity and reality and this is what makes musical an art that is so close of its public. This recital is a true meeting with the audience!
