Glinka: A Life for the Tsar (In Italian)
Zeani, Campora, Christoff; Simonetto
Milano, 1954
$9.95
Description:
This performance of A Life for the Tsar is sung in Italian, and while that may seem incongruous with Glinka’s Russian roots, it reveals the bel canto influence woven throughout his score. A young Virginia Zeani shines in the role of Antonida, and Boris Christoff—no stranger to portraying Tsars—brings his commanding bass to the title role with impressive authority.
