Prokofiev: Peter & the Wolf (2006) more music like this

performed by Boris Karloff, Wiener Staatsopernorchester, Mario Rossi (conductor)
composed by Sergey Prokofiev

There are many recordings of Prokofiev's Peter & the Wolf read by celebrities; so many that a major scholar of recorded sound history spent two years compiling a listing of all of them. Actually, that wasn't just limited to celebrity recordings, but non-instrument playing actors, politicians, local TV show hosts, and other notables make up a large ...

composed by Richard Strauss

If you love the operas of Richard Strauss -- the gloriously lyrical Rosenkavalier, the wonderfully witty Ariadne auf Naxos, the deliriously depraved Salome -- sooner or later you're going to come up against Die Frau ohne Schatten. Setting a highly symbolic and deeply obscure libretto by Hugo von Hoffmansthal, Die Frau is for some a successful ...

composed by Fromental Halévy

La Juive was among the most frequently performed operas of its day, and it is still regarded as a masterpiece of French grand opera. But the sheer size and expense of mounting the work have made productions scarce in modern times, and there has yet to be a studio recording made. This live recording from 1998 on RCA Red Seal is easily the most ...

composed by Richard Wagner

Is this arguably the greatest recorded performance of Wagner's Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg of all time? No, the conductor is probably too individualistic for some tastes and the Walter is surely too pathetic for most tastes. Is this Meistersinger nevertheless still well worth hearing by fans of Wagner's comedy who already know and love the work ...

composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

The best performances of Beethoven's Fidelio are those performances that force listeners out of themselves, out of their real lives and into better lives of deeper emotions and higher ideals, performances that force listeners to change their lives and become deeper, higher, better human beings. How it happened that some of the best performances of ...
