Is it Easy Listening.. or is it Classical??
Well, it's a little of both really
.Renowned "living legend", arranger, conductor and composer Tutti Camarata (a healthy 91 year old still active in L.A.) has created a wonderful combination of styles with his unique orchestral adaptions of the music of one of the great Operatic composers, Giacomo Puccini.
Vocal lines have been scrupulously transferred to the orchestra and Camarata has taken great care in selecting the solo instrument whose timbre most closely conveys the prevailing mood or character of a particular moment.
The result is an album of Orchestral Arias that has simply become beautiful songs without words!
