My studio recording of the famous virtuoso Sigismund Thalberg's (1812-1871) arrangement of the famous aria 'Casta diva' from Bellini's opera 'Norma'. Recorded 5th Sept 2012, Reid Hall, Edinburgh. This piece is part of Thalberg’s collection of arrangements of setting from opera and song, L'art du chant appliqué au piano, . This recording formed the eighth track on my first album of transcriptions and paraphrases taken from opera; please visit for the full album, reviews and further details, or you may stream the album here: “The Casta diva paraphrase is a lovely, warmly hued work and receives a commensurately fine performance. It too derives from the set but is more intricately deployed with the melody lines skittering from hand to hand.“ - Jonathan Woolf, MusicWeb International.
