Our Take

The latest offering from Canada's National Arts Centre Orchestra and conductor Alexander Shelley is a triumphant celebration of three musical darlings - Clara Schumann, Robert Schumann, and Johannes Brahms. Titled "Darlings Of The Muses," this album is a delightful mix of romantic compositions that will transport you to a bygone era of classical music.

Clara Schumann's work shines bright on this record, with her delicate compositions showcasing her incredible skill and emotional depth. Tracks like "Piano Concerto in A Minor" showcase her talent for crafting intricate melodies that tug at the heartstrings.

Robert Schumann's contributions to the album are equally impressive, with his intricate orchestrations and sweeping melodies drawing listeners in from the first note. The lush strings and powerful crescendos of "Symphony No. 4 in D minor" are a highlight, showcasing Schumann's mastery of the symphonic form.

And of course, no tribute to the romantic era would be complete without the music of Johannes Brahms. His lush harmonies and melodic inventiveness are on full display in pieces like "Symphony No. 3 in F Major," which showcases the composer's ability to weave complex emotions into his music.

Overall, "Darlings Of The Muses" is a must-listen for fans of classical music, offering a perfect blend of beauty, emotion, and virtuosity. So sit back, relax, and let the music of these musical giants sweep you off your feet.
