This release was originally released as eight albums (1998-2007). Rossini's Peches de vieillesse, a collection from which the pieces recorded here were sourced, were composed in the final decade of his life, entirely for his own amusement and for those of the guests who flocked to his famous samedis soirs . These works showcase the ageing composer, who in his final happy years can look back on a full life, a man with a razor-sharp sense of humour.
