Classical music captures the spirit of romance like no other music and this charming collection of perennial favorites includes music from the most romantic of composers - Chopin, Rachmaninov, Tchaikovsky, Puccini and many more. The set is themed for every romantic mood, with the first two discs devoted to the stirring passion of orchestral music, the second two to the intimacy of solo piano music, and the last two to the wide-ranging emotions of opera. Includes music from three works written for the greatest love story ever told, Shakespeares Romeo and Juliet, with music from Tchaikovskys overture, Prokofievs ballet and the main theme from the soundtrack to Franco Zeffirellis film, by Nino Rota. Recordings from some of the world s greatest artists including Luciano Pavarotti, Joan Sutherland, Sir Georg Solti, Herbert von Karajan, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Radu Lupu, Nigel Kennedy and Bryn Terfel.
Raise a glass with all of us, including Alisa Weilerstein, Johannes Moser, Arabella Steinbacher and Deniz Kozhukhin, as our Spritz anniversary compilation gives you a splash of sparkle for our celebration of concerto music! From piano to bassoon, cello to harpsichord, each concerto is specially selected for its unique colour and flavour, imparting some surprise and fizz throughout.
