Millions of people all over the world know these tunes. But an awful lot of them don't know that they come from the inexhaustible store of "classical" music. Many of them have been turned into big hits like "Stranger in Paradise" (Polovtsian Dances) or "Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh" (Dance of the Hours) and football anthems like "Nessun dorma" (Puccini's Turandot). Others, like Mendelssohn's "Wedding March" or the bridal chorus from Wagner's "Lohengrin", enrich our marriage ceremonies. Yet others have entered the language with such phrases as "Wine, Women and Song" or "Pomp and Circumstance". They are all brought together on these 10 CDs in a wonderfully melodious reunion of more than 170 tunes, the accompaniment to our lives. Anyone who has fought shy of "the classics" up to now will discover hidden treasure here and become an enthusiastic fan.<br/><br/>With Maurice André, Claudio Arrau, Maria Callas, Mirella Freni, Nicolai Gedda, Ingeborg Hallstein, Herbert von Karajan, Mario Lanza, Nathan Milstein, Lucia Popp, Hermann Prey, Anneliese Rothenberger, Artur Rubinstein, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Georg Solti, Leopold Stokowski and many more.
