Description:

Delibes: *Sylvia* (Complete), Saint-Sans: Ballet Music from the Opera *Henry VIII*This is a complete recording of Delibess masterpiece ballet *Sylvia*, famous for its delicate pizzicato. The story follows Sylvia, a nymph from the world of Greek mythology, as she overcomes hardships to find love; the music is full of tear-jerking, sparkling moments, reminiscent of old-school shjo manga.Saint-Sans piece comes from the ballet section of an opera that has been largely forgotten; as expected of him, he masterfully incorporates the mood of English folk songs to brilliantly bring the image of medieval England to life through sound.
