Mascagni: Cavalleria Rusticana
Shuard, Cossutta, Bisson, Minton, Bainbridge; Balkwill
London, 1967
$5.95
Description:
This performance of Cavalleria Rusticana showcases the great and versatile British soprano, Amy Shuard, in the role of Santuzza. Until her untimely passing, Shuard was a cornerstone of London's operatic scene, excelling in the major roles of Wagner, Verdi, Puccini, and even Janáček. Her soprano was both opulent and steely, with remarkable evenness across all registers.
She is joined by the capable Turiddù of Carlo Cossutta, while Yvonne Minton makes an impression as Lola. The sound quality is fair to good.
