Live Recording from Symphony Center, Chicago, 2012 Angela Gheorghiu Rene Pape Members of the Georg Solti Accademia World Orchestra For Peace Conducted by Valery Gergiev Hosted by Valerie Solti The Solti Centenary Concert in Chicago celebrated Sir Georg Solti's 100th birthday on October 21, 2012, featuring the World Orchestra for Peace. This unique ensemble owes its existence to the vision of its founder, Sir Georg Solti, who believed passionately in peace and the power of music and musicians to be ambassadors for peace. Charmingly hosted by Solti's widow, Lady Valerie Solti, and featuring soloists such as Angela Gheorghiu and Rene Pape as well as members of the Georg Solti Accademia, this memorable evening presents musical highlights, all of which played a significant role in Solti's life and career. Besides excerpts from Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro, Die Zauberflote and Don Giovanni or Verdi's La Traviata and Rigoletto, this concert finds lovely musical moments in the "Adagietto" from Mahler's Fifth Symphony, Strauss' Don Juan and Bartok's masterful Concerto for Orchestra. Sousa's Stars and Stripes Forever as the encore closes the performance with a smash. Conductor Valery Gergiev was a good friend of his advisor Georg Solti. Together with Lady Valerie Solti and the World Orchestra For Peace he carries on Solti's vision and maintains his memory. Blu-ray is in excellent condition as still in its original cellophane.
