About this product
Recorded in 2010 during Riccardo Muti's first subscription concerts as the Chicago Symphony Orchestra's tenth music director, this new double-CD pairs Hector Berlioz's Symphonie fantastique with it's sequel, Lelio, ou le retour de la vie (Lelio, or The Return to Life). Berlioz intended Symphonie fantastique to be followed by Lelio in concert, as the artist returns to life to comment anew on music and art. Maestro Muti and the CSO are joined in Lelio by acclaimed actor Gerard Depardieu as the narrator, tenor Mario Zeffiri, bass-baritone Kyle Ketelsen, and the Chicago Symphony Chorus.... to hear this pairing of works as Berlioz intended was fascinating. (New York Times) [T]he vivid, evocative and beautifully detailed performance the maestro elicited from his platoons of performers - including narrator, soloists and full Chorus, in magnificent voice - drew a thunderous ovation from the packed auditorium. (Chicago Tribune)

2022 . Within the panorama and filmic landscapes that open up from the music, stories and fragments of stories are told, about people, the spaces they occupy, their closeness and the distance that lies between them. Written and recorded over 3 years in London, Switzerland and in an ancient barn not far from their Midland's roots, founding members Simon and Justin Jones who form the core of 'And Also -The Trees' with maverick drummer Paul Hill are joined for the first time by Grant Gordon on bass guitar and Colin Ozanne on clarinet. -Their inclusion brings a twist to this band's subtle yet intriguing evolution. 'And Also -The Trees' have been performing live and creatively developing since they formed in rural Worcestershire at the beginning of the post punk era in 1980.
