Offenbach: Gaite Parisienne / Gounod: Faust Ballet Music / Respighi: Rossiniana

SKU: 03346

Price:
AU $8.95

Label: Decca Cat. No.: 476 2724 Medium: CD No. Discs: 1

Ballet hybrids often eclipse the originals from which they are drawn and such is the case with the music on this disc. Including such popular pieces as the 'Can Can' from Orpheus in the Underworld and the 'Barcarolle' from The Tales of Hoffman, there is possibly no better recording on the market than Solti's of Gaite Parisienne, no recording which fizzes and explodes with such unstoppable energy! Just listen!

The coupling is the familiar Faust ballet music that Gounod appended to the score, plus a rarity - Respighi's arrangement of a number of Rossini pieces as Rossiniana - a beautiful score that is somewhat eclipsed by La Boutique Fantasque.

A Decca Eloquence CD.

Gounod, Offenbach, Resphigi, Rossini.

Ernest Ansermet, Sir Georg Solti.
