La Boutique Fantasque
Album by Gioachino Rossini & Ottorino Respighi & London Philharmonic Orchestra & René Leibowitz
La Boutique Fantasque is a ballet score based on themes by Gioachino Rossini, first created in 1919. The music repurposes Rossini's operatic and piano material into light-hearted orchestral dance pieces that blend his lyrical melodies with bright, characterful orchestration, and it represents a 20th-century reworking that brought 19th-century Rossinian material into the ballet repertoire.
First released: 1967
