Opis: Classics For The People Volume 1

Every now and again a piece of music comes along that captures the publics attention and imagination a composition, movement or excerpt which, on account of the enjoyment or interest we continue to derive from it upon repeated listening, is catapulted into the classical canon where it assumes the status of a permanent fixture.

Such is the case regarding the pieces brought together on this CD album: chart-topping tunes which are among classical musics most loved and celebrated works. From Handels rousing chorus Zadok the Priest a coronation anthem that survived its ineffective first performance to become of the composers most popular works to the magical beauty of Faures wistful, six-minute Pavane and Khachaturians rhythm-driven Gayaneh excerpt Sabre Dance, the set traces over 200 years of Western musical composition to present a programme that is diverse both in style and mood and which never fails to entertain. At hand to perform these iconic works (and revealing their versatility of repertoire) is the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, with acclaimed singers such as Deborah Norman and Wynne Evans putting the finishing touches to this all-British effectuation.

Other information:
- A good, old fashioned, success-proven compilation of Classical Hits, Orchestral Favourites, or whatever you would like to call these ever popular works, which still have a chance to find a new audience, because there are still hoards of people who have never heard Verdis Triumphal Aida March, Handels Hallelujah, Khatchaturians Sabre Dance, Strauss Blue Danube, Orffs O Fortuna, or Puccinis Nessun Dorma.
- Excellent performances by one of the worlds best orchestras, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
- Total time nearly 140 minutes.
- Booklet includes detailed notes on the music.
