Milano, 1964
$9.95
Description:
With Carlo Bergonzi, Raina Kabaivanska, and Nicolai Ghiaurov in the principal roles, this performance of Faust offers a cast of near-definitive stature.
Bergonzi sings Faust with his trademark elegance and effortless phrasing, navigating the role’s challenges with poise and lyricism. Ghiaurov, captured here at the height of his powers, delivers a Mephistopheles of commanding presence—his voice booming, opulent, and darkly seductive. Kabaivanska brings radiant tone and emotional depth to Margarita, evoking shades of Magda Olivero in her expressiveness and sensitivity.
