This unique CD presents the evolution of music during the years encompassed by painter Claude Monet’s entire artistic output -- beginning in 1862 with soaring and robust Romantic works, and concluding in 1917 with the more evocative and subtle Impressionist pieces. You will quickly realize just how progressive and ahead-of-the-curve Monet was. Produced for the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, this beautiful and rich CD features musical works by Tchaikovsky, Strauss II, Saint-Saëns, Bizet, Delibes, and other Romantic era composers, as well as music by Debussy, Ravel, Dukas, and other Impressionist era composers. A must for your classical CD collection.
