Verdi's AIDA - Nile Scene - Dance of the Priestesses - Cleopatra - Ancient Egypt
The beautiful music of Verdi's opera "Aida" is set to scenes of the Nile River, Luxor, Abu Simbel, and other archaeological sites in Egypt. Also includes scenes from Cleopatra (1934) with Claudette Colbert and "Caesar and Cleopatra" (1945) starring Vivien Leigh. Video edited by Gilda Tabarez on July 19, 2009. NB: The flute intro for the Nile Scene is from the album "Giuseppe Verdi: Life and Works", narrated by Jeremy Siepmann; while the chorus section is from the album "Verdi: Great Operas From La Scala". There were no liner notes so not sure who conducted these pieces. I split the Nile Scene music because the flute was more audible on the Siepmann cd and the chorus sounded fuller on the La Scala cd.
