Belkis, Queen Of Sheba Suite

Published in 2001, "Belkis, Queen of Sheba" is Respighi's full-length ballet with singing, whose freedom of movement initially prevented a performance until the La Scala ventured a first. This is only the second recording of a suite, which was prepared by the composer - for the first time with the tenor solo (sung by Chad Shelton) and with the movements in the correct order. The oriental flair and uncivilized splendor of music guarantee enthusiastic audience. titles: 1 Solomon's Dream - (Belkis, Queen of Sheba Suite) 2 Dance of Belkis at Dawn (Belkis, Queen of Sheba) 3 War Dance - (Belkis, Queen of Sheba Suite) 4 Orgiastic Dance - (Belkis, Queen of Sheba Suite) 5 Allegro Vivace - (Dance of the Gnomes) 6 Meno Mosso - (Dance of the Gnomes) 7 Alla Marcia Funebre - (Dance of the Gnomes) 8 Allegro - (Dance of the Gnomes) 9 The Pines of the Villa Borghese - Pines of Rome 10 The Pines Near A Catacomb - (Pines of Rome) 11 The Pines of The Janiculum - (Pines of Rome) 12 The Pines of the Appia Way - (Pines of Rome)
