Synopsis

Product Description
These 2CD mid-price sets, drawn from the catalogues of EMI Classics and Virgin Classics, present a selection of the best-loved and most popular ballet music by the great composers, performed by the world's leading artists. This album complements the three previous Tchaikovsky releases in the series (Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker) and features a condensed version of the dramatic ballet Onegin, created by John Cranko in Stuttgart and now performed by major companies all over the world. It uses piano music by Tchaikovsky arranged and orchestrated by Kurt-Heinz Stolze. The rest of the programmes consists of three major ballets choreographed by George Balanchine created on extracts from Tchaikovsky's Suite for Orchestra No.3 in G (Theme and Variations) and his Symphony No.3 in D `Polish' (Jewels: Diamonds) plus the complete version of his Piano Concerto No.2 in G (Ballet Imperial).
