Renée Fleming and Bryn Terfel, two of the most celebrated voices in opera, join forces to present "Under The Stars," a captivating collection of beloved songs from the worlds of opera and Broadway. Recorded live at the 2002 Faenol Festival in the picturesque Welsh Mountains, this album offers a unique blend of classical elegance and theatrical flair.
The duo's chemistry is palpable as they navigate through a diverse repertoire, from the haunting beauty of "Moonfall" from "The Mystery of Edwin Drood" to the rousing energy of "Seventy-Six Trombones" from "The Music Man." The album also features a stirring antiwar protest with "The Beautiful Game: All The Love I Have" and a celebration of the American dream with "Ragtime: Wheels of a Dream."
Fleming and Terfel's shared passion for musical theatre shines through in their high-spirited performances, making this album a delight for both opera enthusiasts and Broadway aficionados. The Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera, conducted by Paul Gemignani, provides a rich and dynamic accompaniment, enhancing the overall listening experience.
