Naxos Scenic Musical Journeys Florence, Italy Musical Tour of the City's Past and Present

Ranging from Palestrina to Puccini, the music includes an excerpt from the latter's opera Gianni Schicchi, set in Florence, and arias from Verdi, instrumental excerpts by Rossini, a poignant extract from Mozart's Concerto for Flute and Harp and his mock-serenade from Don Giovanni, ending with a transcription for guitar of a Caprice
