From dawn-breaking fishing boats to sun-drenched landscapes; the Tuscan countryside to the magical cities of Genoa, Florence and Venice, these were the sights of inspiration for some of Europe's greatest master composers. This volume of the Naxos Musical Journey takes you on an unforgettable voyage through the music of Liszt, Mendelssohn, Leoncavallo, Cui, Massenet, Gounod, Denza and Godard. Visit the timeless tradition of the Contucci vineyards or explore the landscape and churches of Montepulciano.
