Tchaikovsky: Swan Lake (2003) more music like this

performed by Frank Kaderabek (trumpet), Margarita Csonka Montanaro (harp), Norman Carol (violin), William Stokking (cello), Philadelphia Orchestra, Wolfgang Sawallisch (conductor)
composed by Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky

The first of Tchaikovsky's great ballet scores, Swan Lake has been enshrined in the public's imagination as the classical ballet non pareil. Little is known of this work's origins and early history except from anecdotal evidence, and performances in Tchaikovsky's lifetime were variable and sporadic. The score was published posthumously, and it ...

performed by Kirov Chorus, St. Petersburg (choir, chorus), Kirov Orchestra, St.Petersburg, Valery Gergiev (conductor)
composed by Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky

There are only so many ways you can say it, but it's worth repeating: the combination of Valery Gergiev and the Kirov Orchestra is one of the all-time best when it comes to performing Russian music for the stage. The recording of the complete Nutcracker is just one example of their particular skills. There is a clarity and precision to the ...

composed by Francis Poulenc

Let's raise a glass of Chateaux-Neuf-du-Pape to Erato, once one of the great French classical labels that exists only in reissues. In its prime, Erato had many of the finest French performers, from Monique Haas to Pierre Boulez, on its roster. At its peak in the digital era, it had even signed the Argentinean Daniel Barenboim and the Chicago ...

composed by Benjamin Britten, Franz Joseph Haydn, Maurice Ravel, Ralph Vaughan Williams, Robert Schumann, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Given the vaunted status of and incessant competitiveness among qualified musicians for the first section chairs of major symphony orchestras, perhaps it should not come as too much of a surprise that a first-chair soloist is often as skilled in transmitting concerto literature as a "star" recitalist. But producers of classical recordings have not ...

RCA's Classical Music 101 is a clever execution of a timely concept, collecting (you guessed it) 101 famous classical themes and associating them with the movies, television shows, and commercials that have brought them to the public at large. The intent is to show newcomers that they already know more classical music than they think they do, and ...

The Very Best of Victoria de Los Angeles is a superior representation of the soprano's career.

The title is Romantic Adagios II. The description is "Over 2 1/2 hours of the world's most passionate music." What these are, in other words, are two discs of seduction music, which is fine. Using music for seductive purposes is the oldest ploy in the world. From Orpheus up to Ol' Blue Eyes, music hath charms to arouse, inflame, and incite ...
