Product Description

Immerse yourself in the rich, dramatic orchestral works of Florent Schmitt with this captivating album, released on Naxos in 2015. The album features Schmitt's complete suites from "Antoine et Cléopâtre" (Op. 69a and Op. 69b), along with his hauntingly beautiful "Le palais hanté" (Op. 49). Schmitt, a French composer known for his vivid orchestration and evocative compositions, brings to life the tumultuous love story of Antony and Cleopatra in the first two suites. The third suite, "Le tombeau de Cléopâtre," offers a poignant and reflective conclusion to the narrative. The album concludes with "Le palais hanté," a chilling and atmospheric piece that showcases Schmitt's mastery of orchestral color and mood. With a total runtime of 59 minutes, this album is a compelling exploration of Schmitt's distinctive style and his ability to convey powerful emotions through music.
