Alysha Umphress, Danielle de Niese, David Butt Philip, Nathan Gunn, London Symphony Chorus, Sir Simon Rattle, London Symphony Orchestra, Duncan Rock
Déclaration d’amour de Leonard Bernstein à la ville qui l’a vu grandir, Wonderful Town raconte les tribulations de deux sœurs à New York, entre bohème et rêve américain. Pour célébrer le centenaire de la naissance du compositeur, Sir Simon Rattle transforme le London Symphony Orchestra en chaleureux big band, y ajoutant cinq saxophones qui font vibrer les chansons et leurs interprètes Danielle de Niese et Alysha Umphress. En prime, une version en concert de « Conga ! » avec la participation du public, conclut en feu d’artifice cet éclatant mariage du jazz et de l’opéra.
