Composers

Who are the great composers? And what do they tell us through their works? In this magnificent album dedicated to the vast universe of classical music, violinist and educator Claudio Ricignuolo presents the greatest among them, from the Baroque era to the 20th century. Mozart, Vivaldi, Bach, Beethoven, Wagner, Verdi, Ravel, Stravinsky and others come to life through texts brimming with amusing anecdotes and astonishing stories, through Luc Melanson's illustrations, which are both funny and poetic, and also through the brief but numerous musical excerpts found on the disc. Grouped by themes (nature, feelings, heroes and battles, travels), these musical moments, chosen from the best works of all time, allow us to delve into the fascinating and mysterious world of composers and their creations. An exceptional book-disc, an invitation to explore a fantastic world, a true journey to the wonderland of music.
