The Baltic Sea Philharmonic release new album for Sony Classical

The Baltic Sea Philharmonic’s new album "Sleeping Beauty” was released on Sony Classical. The recording sees Kristjan Järvi conducting the orchestra in his own arrangement of Tchaikovsky’s fairytale ballet, condensing and transforming the near three-hour score into a dramatic symphony of around 70 minutes. 

The new album is the Baltic Sea Philharmonic’s third release with Kristjan Järvi for Sony, following 2016’s "The Ring: An Orchestral Adventure", and their recording of Stravinsky’s Violin Concerto featuring David Nebel, which was released in May 2020. Ahead of the full album release, Sony separately released three singles from Sleeping Beauty: ‘Pas d’Action: Desiré sees Aurora’, ‘Garland Waltz’ and ‘The Blue Bird and Princess Florine’. For each single, the Baltic Sea Philharmonic and Kristjan Järvi have released a music video – see below and enjoy watching.
