Various - Hector Berlioz, Augusta Holmes: La Nuit �toil�e

Celebrating the 160th anniversary of its founding, the Parisian Orchestre Pasdeloup dedicates its new album to two composers who were greatly appreciated by the orchestra's founder Jules Pasdeloup: Hector Berlioz with his orchestral song cycle 'Les Nuits d��t�' and the cantata 'Cl�op�tre', and Augusta Holm�s (1847�1903), one of only a few female composers who were regularly perfor-med during their lifetime, with her Symphonic Interlude 'La Nuit et l�Amour'. The popular French mezzo soprano Stephanie d'Oustrac is collaborating with conductor Wolfgang Doerner, who has been a partner of Orchestre Pasdeloup for more than 30 years.
