{"product_id":"musical-zoo-various-musical-zoo","title":"Musical Zoo \/ Various- Musical Zoo (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Musical Zoo with Ashley Riches and Joseph Middleton is a veritable tour de force, featuring compositions spanning nearly 160 years, from Schubert's 'The Trout' to Shostakovich's 'Once there lived a cockroach' and four languages (German, French, Russian and English). A strong representation of the German Lieder tradition (Schubert, Schumann, Wolf, Brahms and Richard Strauss) is balanced by the French mélodie (Fauré, Ravel) and English lyricism (Ireland, Howells). We humans seem to have an endless fascination with the animal kingdom, and animals have proved an inspiration for artists, composers, and writers alike. This recital demonstrates what a rich seam this has proved for a diverse range of composers. Ashley Riches comments: 'The text [of a song] may outline to us what we see. But the flutterings of Schubert's Birds, the flicking antennae of Shostakovich's Cockroach, the rush of notes with which Ravel's Peacock spreads it's tail - these are movements and energies accessible to music alone.'\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie Forelle, Op. 32, D. 550\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie V\u0026amp;ouml;gel, Op. 172 No. 6, D. 691\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Ges\u0026amp;auml;nge, Op. 31: No. 1, Die L\u0026amp;ouml;wenbraut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoethe-Lieder: No. 11, Der Rattenf\u0026amp;auml;nger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 Lieder, Op. 46: No. 4, An Die Nachtigall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie Drossel, Trv 49\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Songs, Op. 1: No. 1, Le Papillon Et La Fleur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistoires Naturelles, M. 50: No. 1, Le Paon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistoires Naturelles, M. 50: No. 2, Le Grillon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistoires Naturelles, M. 50: No. 3, Le Cygne\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistoires Naturelles, M. 50: No. 4, Le Martin-P\u0026amp;ecirc;cheur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistoires Naturelles, M. 50: No. 5, La Pintade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMephistopheles\u0026amp;#39;s Song In Auerbach\u0026amp;#39;s Cellar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 Verses Of Captain Lebyadkin, Op. 146: No. 2, The Cockroach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Three Ravens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKing David\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHermit Songs, Op. 29: No. 8, The Monk And His Cat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 13, The Jelly Fish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 17, The Fly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 4, Our Dog\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 3, The Ant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 9, The Pig\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 1, The Duck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 19, The Termite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 11, The Calf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 7, The Turkey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 16, The Sea Gull\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 12, The Rooster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 14, The Germ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 10, The Centipede\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 18, The Firefly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 15, The Sparrow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 2, The Cow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 8, The Kitten\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 6, The Mouse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 20, The Pigeon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOgden Nash\u0026amp;#39;s Musical Zoo: No. 5, The Frog\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Crocodile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eUPC \u0026gt; 095115218426\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFormat \u0026gt; New CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLabel \u0026gt; Chandos\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47541484388573,"sku":"095115218426","price":158.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/3927111-2668369.jpg?v=1772600703","url":"https:\/\/darksiderecords.myshopify.com\/products\/musical-zoo-various-musical-zoo","provider":"Darkside Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
