Venice is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, and this coffee table book and 4-CD celebration of Venice will be loved by those who love her. Cult photographer David Hamilton takes a characteristically romantic view of the lagoon city and reveals a quite different side to its history with his artistic creativity. Included with the book are 4 CDs of classical music that highlights Venice's various eras and moods, with works by composers from Antonio Vivaldi, performed by Thomas Zehetmair, to romantic composers such as Gustav Mahler, conducted by Kurt Masur and others. In addition, the Venetian ensemble Orchestra Di Gran Caffe Quadri can be heard live in authentic surroundings. A stunning tribute to one of the most loved cities in the world.
