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 ...

Weber: Overtures (2002) more music like this

performed by Philharmonia Orchestra of London, Wolfgang Sawallisch (conductor)
composed by Carl Maria von Weber

Listeners may be quite familiar with Carl Maria von Weber's overture to his masterpiece Der Freischütz and well acquainted with his overtures to Euryanthe and Oberon; but the remaining works on this EMI Encore reissue are fairly obscure. The singspiel Abu Hassan, and incidental music for the play Preciosa have long been forgotten, except for their ...

Mozart: Violin Concerto No. 3; Brahms: Violin Concerto (2003) more music like this

performed by Frank Peter Zimmermann (violin), Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, Wolfgang Sawallisch (conductor)
composed by Johannes Brahms, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Already an internationally acclaimed violinist at 26, Frank Peter Zimmermann landed his EMI contract in 1990. His first release was this 1991 disc, which opened with an emotionally stunning performance of Berg's Violin Concerto and closed with a virtuosically staggering performance of Ravel's Tzigane. Zimmermann followed this with equally ...

The Very Best of Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (2003) more music like this

performed by Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (baritone), Gerald Moore (piano), Jacques Neilz (cello), James McCracken (tenor), Jean-Pierre Rampal (flute), Robert Veyron-Lacroix (harpsichord), Wolfgang Sawallisch (piano)
composed by Franz Schubert, George Frederick Handel, Giuseppe Verdi, Gustav Mahler, Hugo Wolf, Johann Sebastian Bach, Johannes Brahms, Richard Strauss, Richard Wagner

As an entry in the "greatest hits" parade, this release faces a tough challenge; the sheer depth of Fischer-Dieskau's recorded catalog, and the percentage of it that is of outstanding quality, is far too large to represent on a two-disc compilation. It can only hope to whet a few appetites for more of his singing, and when viewed in that light ...

composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Wolfgang Sawallisch's 1973 Die Zauberflöte is a fully satisfying version of the opera; it features superb soloists and exemplary playing and singing by the orchestra and chorus of the Bavarian State Opera. All of the performers very clearly have this music in their blood and are absolutely convincing in putting it across. Sawallisch has both the ...
