Garnering a total of ten Academy Awards - including Best Picture of 1961 - West Side Story set a brilliant standard for movie musicals that remains unsurpassed to this day. Directed by Robert Wise and Jerome Robbins from Ernest Lehman's spectacular screenplay, the film combines the unforgettable score of Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim with Robbins' exuberant choreography to create a transcendent fusion of realism and fantasy that will forever be a feast for the eye, the ear, and ultimately, the heart. A triumph on every level, this electrifying musical sets the ageless tragedy of Romeo and Juliet against a backdrop of gang warfare in the slums of 1950's New York.

Very Good condition Since winning the Luciano Pavarotti International Competition, then in 1990 making his debut in  La Traviata  at the Monte Carlo Opera, Roberto Alagna has been acclaimed as the most outstanding tenor of his generation.  Soprano Angela Gheorghiu was discovered the same year at the Bucharest Music Academy, and her recording of  La Traviata  won the 1996 Classic CD of the Year award.  That same year the couple married and made their first album together, this collection of 14 duets and arias.  There are ten duets, which each star having two solo arias.  The music is mostly from the great romantic operas of the nineteenth century, the exception being the duet "Tonight" from Leonard Bernstein's marvellous Broadway musical  West Side Story.  Gheorghiu is heard solo performing "Depuis le jour", an elegy to remembered love from Charpentier's  Louise, and Donizetti's "Al dolce guidami" from  Anna Bolena, before uniting with Alagna for the same composer's "Tornami a dir" from  Don Pasquale.  Alagna is found solo in Massenet and Offenbach, while together the singers voices entwine to magical effect in duets by Mascagni, Berlioz, Puccini, and others.  With performances as enchanting as one could possibly wish for, this luxurious and immaculately produced anthology of passionately romantic music is delightful addition to any music collection. *** Please do look at my other items for sale; combined shipping available. ***
