|
I had said I have problems with some 20th century compositions and I don't like Operas. It is not the case with Ça Ira.
Amazon
Ça Ira takes place during the French queen's last years, as the French Revolution unfurls.
| Roger Waters (site) wrote: |
| Roger has been working on the Ça Ira opera for near 20 years, and now it looks like we all will finally be able to hear this wonderful classical piece. Ça Ira was written for an 84 piece orchestra, three soloists (tenor, baritone and soprano) and an adult and children's choir. |

I love the huge orchestra & vocal assortment. I like this one.
