专辑简介

They admired each other: Giuseppe Verdi and Richard Wagner were "brothers in spirit" although their way of composing and their musical style was completely different. This new album confronts the two geniuses with their most spectacular musical pieces - the great choral scenes from their operas. The result is a thrilling musical combination and confrontation that has never been captured on an album before. The Berlin State Opera Choir and the Berlin Radio Orchestra conducted by Richard Kraus deliver the music with great artistry in all their beautiful facets. "Verdi versus Wagner" - a new musical experience!
