Cellopera
Ophélie Gaillard, Morphing Chamber Orchestra, Frédéric Chaslin
AP248 - 1CD - 75' - Mar 5, 2021

From well-loved arias to personal discoveries, this recording journeys through over a century of opera, with transcriptions for cello and orchestra stretching from Mozart to Puccini and including Verdi, Tchaikovsky, and Offenbach. The curtain goes up on some of Ophélie Gaillard's favorite pieces, which explore human passions through the voice of the cello, that most human of instruments.
