L. Bernstein: Wonderful Town
Bernstein: Wonderful Town (Bonus Track Version)
David Butt Philip, Danielle de Niese, Sir Simon Rattle, Nathan Gunn, Alysha Umphress, London Symphony Chorus, London Symphony Orchestra, Duncan Rock
A celebração irreverente e carinhosa de Bernstein em homenagem a Nova York é uma das obras favoritas de Simon Rattle. Ele já havia gravado este musical e agora, com a Orquestra Sinfônica de Londres, apresenta uma configuração de big band, igualmente bem‑sucedida. Nós acompanhamos os desafios de duas irmãs na cidade, curtindo alguns clássicos pelo caminho. Danielle de Niese e Alysha Umphress são protagonistas de um elenco poderoso com personagens lindamente construídos. As letras de Betty Comden e Adolph Green brilham sobre as melodias marcantes de Bernstein. Um deleite do começo ao fim.
