Background: Emmanuel Pahud performs a programme of virtuoso operatic fantasies with the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra and its exciting young Canadian music director Yannick Nézet-Séguin. All the pieces on this album have been transcribed or were written in a version for flute and piano in the 19th century, apart from two.

One of these is Lensky's aria, arranged as a fantasy for violin and piano and the other piece is the variations on Die Zauberflöte. Emmanuel Pahud, one of today's most exciting and adventurous musicians, demonstrates his mastery of and sympathy for music composed over nearly three centuries. Principal Flute of the Berliner Philharmoniker since the age of 22, with the exception of a year-and-a-half-long sabbatical. "...an unimaginable flautist, as marvellous a musician as he is an accomplished virtuoso, ... the soloist of his generation." - Le Temps Geneva.
