About This Song
About "Offenbach: Gaîté parisienne: Barcarolle. Allegro moderato (Arr. M. Rosenthal)" by Cincinnati Pops Orchestra
Offenbach's Barcarolle glides on a gondola of sound, strings rippling like Venetian canals at dusk. The Cincinnati Pops render Rosenthal's arrangement with velvet restraint, a serene surface barely concealing the melancholy undertow of a city adrift.
