Scored for a reciter, three vocal soloists, a six-part chorus, and a grand orchestra, the work dramatically chronicles the legendary explorer's monumental maritime voyage around Africa. Although Bizet only ever completed the first part of this ambitious project, it stands as a thrilling testament to his early theatrical instincts and expanding mastery of orchestral color. Presented here in a meticulous edition by musicologist Hugh Macdonald and recently featured in the Bru Zane Portraits recording series, this rarity offers a vibrant glimpse into the young composer's developing genius.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fishergate Music","offers":[{"title":"Vocal Score","offer_id":45297244602447,"sku":"FGM1004-VS","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Full Score","offer_id":45297228873807,"sku":"FGM1004","price":111.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/63fdd482452010c3233ab90d6575b978.png?v=1779642340","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/fr\/products\/bizet-vasco-da-gama-fishergate","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
