Thalberg was considered a rival to Liszt though their supposed animosity was largely a journalistic invention. The creation of transcriptions of popular operatic melodies and their transformation into virtuoso concert pieces was hugely fashionable, but Thalberg’s treatments were also admired by Schumann for their Classical transparency, and for stylish technical innovations that saw him imitated throughout Europe. These fantasies on themes by Donizetti are full of the lyrical charm and drama of the original operas, combined with pianistic fireworks that delighted audiences worldwide.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThalberg, Sigismond\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e Fantaisie sur l'opéra La fille du régiment, Op. 68\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 1 Fantaisie sur l'opéra La fille du régiment, Op. 68 08:53\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e Grande Fantaisie sur des motifs de l'opéra Don Pasquale, Op. 67\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 2 Grande Fantaisie sur des motifs de l'opéra Don Pasquale, Op. 67 14:45\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e Fantaisie sur l'opéra Lucrezia Borgia, Op. 50\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 3 Fantaisie sur l'opéra Lucrezia Borgia, Op. 50 11:51\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e Andante final de Lucie di Lammermoor, Op. 44\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 4 Andante final de Lucie di Lammermoor, Op. 44 07:35\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e Introduzione e Variazioni sulla Barcarola dell' Elisir d'amore, Op. 66\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 5 Introduzione e Variazioni sulla Barcarola dell' Elisir d'amore, Op. 66 12:18\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTotal Playing Time: 55:22\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"NAXOS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67592041267450,"sku":"8555502","price":10.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/8.555502.jpg?v=1792166008","url":"https:\/\/classicselectworld.com\/en-de\/products\/thalberg-fantasies-on-operas-by-donizetti","provider":"ClassicSelect World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
