Our Take

Swedish composer Paul Lidstrom's Rigoletto Fantasy is a delightful romp through the world of opera, jazz, and everything in between. With the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by the legendary Vladimir Ashkenazy, this album is a true musical feast for the ears.

The opening track, "Rigoletto-Quattro Pezzi", sets the tone for the rest of the album with its lush strings and intricate melodies. Lidstrom's reimagining of Verdi's classic opera is both fresh and innovative, showcasing his unique blend of classical and contemporary styles.

The standout track on the album has to be "Fantasia on Themes from Bizet's Carmen", a dazzling display of virtuosity and creativity. The Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra's performance is nothing short of breathtaking, with Ashkenazy at the helm guiding them through every twist and turn of Lidstrom's intricate score.

Overall, Lidstrom's Rigoletto Fantasy is a must-listen for any music lover looking for something new and exciting. With its blend of classical and jazz influences, this album is sure to be a hit with both traditional opera buffs and modern music enthusiasts alike. So sit back, relax, and let Lidstrom take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget.
