Britten Conducts Britten: Operas 1 [Box Set] (2004) more music like this

composed by Benjamin Britten

Benjamin Britten's recordings of his own operas are definitive -- cutting out the interpretive middle man and going straight to the heart of every bar, every scene. For sure, there are better sounding, and in many cases better sung, recordings to be had, especially of the popular works like Peter Grimes and Billy Budd; but none of them are as ...

composed by Benjamin Britten

For the hardcore Britten fan on your list, the 10-disc set called Britten conducts Britten is the perfect gift solution. They'll no doubt already have the classic recording of Britten conducting the War Requiem, his choral-orchestral masterpiece. But unless they collect old LPs, they probably won't have most of the rest of the recordings on these ...

composed by Arthur Sullivan

Malcolm Sargent began serving as an accompanist for amateur productions of Gilbert & Sullivan when he was 14, was musical director for the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company from 1926 to 1928, and made complete recordings of several of the operettas with the company, so he clearly had the Gilbert & Sullivan tradition in his blood. During the late '50s and ...

composed by Christmas Traditional, Felix Mendelssohn, Franz Xaver Gruber, Geoffrey Shaw, George Frederick Handel, Henry John Gauntlett, Johann Georg Ebeling, John Francis Wade, John Henry Hopkins, Jr., Richard Storrs Willis

The recordings of pioneer countertenor Alfred Deller, really the first "star" of early music, have held up well even as fashions in countertenor singing have changed. This two-disc set of Christmas music is not exactly forthright about the fact that the recordings were made in 1956 and 1960 (the information is way in the back of booklet, not on ...

composed by Arthur Sullivan

Iolanthe has never achieved quite the place in the popular imagination that H.M.S. Pinafore, The Pirates of Penzance, and The Mikado have, but musically and dramatically it's one of Gilbert and Sullivan's most musically and dramatically integrated operettas. Sullivan's score is even more than usually tuneful, and his orchestration is particularly ...
