Search - Lesley Spencer, The Latin Chamber Pop Ensemble & Orchestra, Fareed Haque :: Classical Delight

Lesley Spencer, with The Latin Chamber Pop Ensemble & Orchestra, featuring guitar soloist Fareed Haque and the Glen Ellyn Children's Chorus, create music that returns the melody to center stage where it rightfully belongs on CLASSICAL DELIGHT. Some larger scale orchestral pieces augment the smaller ensemble sound, while jazz and world influences enhance more traditional classical elements because as Spencer notes, "classical composers have always drawn upon the musical idioms of their own time. Also, improvisation has always been a huge part of classical music - something many people don't realize - so we included that as well, infusing the music with ideas in the moment. The listener gets a real treat - a memorable classical musical journey which unfolds and delights in an unpredictable way - hence CLASSICAL DELIGHT."
