Prelude in G Major (Bach Cello Suite #1 Sample)

Italian Capriccio, Op.45 (Tchaikovsky, Pyotr) Fragm III

Il lago dei cigni è uno dei più famosi e acclamati balletti del XIX secolo, musicato da Pëtr Il'ič Čajkovskij (op. 20). La prima rappresentazione ebbe luogo al Teatro Bolshoi di Mosca il 20 febbraio 1877 (calendario giuliano), con la coreografia di Julius Wenzel Reisinger.
Il libretto di Vladimir Petrovic Begičev, direttore dei teatri imperiali di Mosca insieme al ballerino Vasil Fedorovič Geltzer, è basato su un'antica fiaba tedesca, Der geraubte Schleier (Il velo rubato), seguendo il racconto di Jophann Karl August Musäus.
Primo dei tre balletti di Čajkovskij, fu composto tra il 1875 e il 1876. Viene rappresentato in quattro atti e quattro scene (soprattutto fuori dalla Russia e nell'Europa Orientale) o in tre atti e quattro scene (in Russia e Europa occidentale). Sebbene esistano molte versioni diverse del balletto, la maggior parte delle compagnie di danza basa l'allestimento, sia dal punto di vista coreografico che musicale, sul revival di Marius Petipa e Lev Ivanov per il Balletto Imperiale, presentato la prima volta il 15 gennaio 1895 (data come sopra) al Teatro Imperiale Mariinskij a San Pietroburgo, Russia.

Hannibal's Piano Soundtrack features classical songs heard in the populair NBC series of ‘Hannibal’ played on piano. The clean recorded pianotracks could be seen as a classical piano compilation album of Chopin, Bach and Beethoven. The dark sound of the Steinway heard throughout the soundtrack fits the grim series atmosphere more than ever. Bon Appétit!

While trying to get better at using EWQLSO & Ableton I had to type in this great piece by Mozart. His music always comes back to me and he will always be one of my favorite composers.

I hope you enjoy.
