Anyone looking for the greatest pieces the classical repertoire has to offer need look no further, this album contains carefully selected pieces from the full range of the classical map. In 2009 the esteemed London Philharmonic Orchestra entered Abbey Road studios to record a legendary session. Led by conductor David Parry, The LPO performed 50 pieces selected from every classical era and every thinkable composer. The result is a stunning collection of symphonies, fugues, operatic pieces and overtures, all put together into an organic compilation. The emotional range is vast, from Tchaikovsky's fragile "Swan Lake" to Mozart's heart breaking "Requiem" and Wagner's powerful "Ride Of The Valkyries". Performed by one of the world's greatest orchestras, the pieces are all masterful recordings, and with soloists such as Finghin Collins and Pieter Shoeman we are given the finest of performances. On 4 CDs and with 50 spectacular recordings, The Greatest Pieces of Classical Music is the definitive compilation for the curious beginner as well as the classical aficionado
