Details:
The bond between English composer Benjamin Britten and his partner, British tenor Peter Pears, was a very special one: the two musicians were a mutual source of inspiration for almost four decades, helping each other to fantastic artistic achievements - from their very first meeting in 1937 to Britten’s death in 1976 Britten is still the most frequently performed British composer of the 20th and early 21st centuries If Music Be The Food Of Love - the 10 CD boxed set now to be released - documents the results of the productive and artistic cooperation of these two exceptional talents: with recordings from The Turn Of The Screw and Billy Budd to the Michelangelo Sonets, to name but a few examples Britten composed a large number of works for his lifemate, including seven works for orchestra and voice, seven song cycles, five songs of praise and twelve opera roles If Music Be The Food Of Love presents both his music and Peter Pears’ voice; a unique highlight among the modern English classical music productions of the 20th century LABEL: DOCUMENTS
