Regarder Gala from Berlin - 2012 en direct

Synopsis

On New Year's Eve the Berliner Philharmoniker and Sir Simon Rattle invite us to join them together with Cecilia Bartoli, who graced their annual concert at the Philharmonie, Berlin with arias selected from her extraordinary repertoire. Also featured: exhilarating dances by Brahms and Dvorák that happily combine characteristics of their own idioms with Slavonic and Hungarian folk music. The program features following works: Rameau's Dances Suite, Gavotte and Entr'acte from Les Boréades; Handel's "Scherza in mar la navicella" from Lotario, "Ah che sol...M'adoro l'idol mio" from Teseo and "Lascia la spina" from Il Trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno. This is followed by orchestral performances such as Dvorák's Slavonic Dances Op. 46\/1, No. 4, Op.72\/4 and Op. 46\/3, Suite No. 2 from Ravel's Daphnis et Chloé and Brahms' Hungarian Dance No. 1.
