The Het Muziektheater in Amsterdam provides a fitting setting for this rendition of Tchaikovsky's THE SLEEPING BEAUTY. Shot in 2004, the Dutch National Ballet interprets the moves under the watchful tutelage of choreographer Sir Peter Wright, while the music is provided by the Holland Symfonia. The piece is regarded as being among the most difficult in the pantheon of classical music, so it's a testament to the abilities of all involved in this production that it is pulled off with such consummate ease.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseWidescreen - 16:9Audio: dts Surround - Natural sound/Music LPCM Stereo - Natural sound/Music

South African pianist Steven de Groote was a stunningly talented musician who never got to enjoy all of the fruits of his labor; he died tragically after a plane crash at age 36. Still, in his short life, de Groote made a mark on the international classical music scene, winning the coveted Gold Metal at the the 1977 Van Cliburn Competition. This performance, filmed in 1983, captures the sensitivity and complexity of de Groote's playing. Backed by the consistently stellar Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana, he performs 3 major works by Chopin, Schubert, and Schumann. Milan Horvat, the famed Croatian, conducts.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Single SideSingle LayerAudio: Dolby Digital 2.0 Dolby Digital 5.1Tracks:1.
