This recording reveals how the grandeur and expressive range of operas by Bellini and Verdi was brought from the theatre into private parlours and salons. The composers featured on this album preserve the spirit of the original works while reimagining the famous melodies and dramatic scenes as paraphrases, fantasies and variations. Awardwinning Italian pianist, Ruben Micieli, performs these dazzling pieces in his own unique way, making musical and structural adjustments to each transcription after studying the scores by Bellini and Verdi.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Fantaisie Dramatique Sur Il Trovatore de Verdi, Op. 8 \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Fantaisie Brillante Sur I Puritani de Bellini, Op. 48 \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Deux Paraphrases De Salon, D'Après Verdi, Op. 70~No. 1.
