The music originates in extracts from the two operas chosen by the choreographer - sometimes only forty seconds or less - but recomposed into longer pieces. A few of these, like Purcell's \u003ci\u003eDido's Lament\u003c\/i\u003e, are well-known, others less so. But each piece, however much it is transformed, extended or modified, is recognisable from the original. The music was recorded live during the ballet's world tour. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIda Toninato: soprano, alto and baritone saxophones\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJennifer Thiessen: viola\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJean-Christophe Lizotte: cello\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNjo Kong Kie: piano, musical director\u003cp\u003eOverture\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBanish Sorrow\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAh, Belinda\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo The Hills\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrelude For The Witches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Our Deep Vaulted Cell\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaste Haste\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Triumphing Dance\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks To The Lonesome Vales\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCupid Only\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDance B (After Gluck: Orfeo et Euridice)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith Drooping Wings\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDido's Lament\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAir\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePantomime\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAh, Si Intorno\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDance Of The Furies\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAh Quale Incognito\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDance A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVieni A Regni\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSposa\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMen Tiranne\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrio\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54421394293121,"sku":"1900099","price":14.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/5052442023654.jpg?v=1750649376","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/1900099","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
