Puccini: La Rondine
Costa, Campora, Cutsforth, P. Price; Minde
1971
$9.95
Description:
A former courtesan is a long way from a Disney princess, but Mary Costa brings both emotional complexity and tragic allure to Magda in a portrayal that feels deeply lived-in. Her performance is poised, poignant, and vocally luminous, revealing the full range of her expressive power. Giuseppe Campora may not possess Costa’s refinement, but his innate sense of Italianate style and vibrant phrasing allow him to hold his own, providing a worthy counterpart. The sound is excellent.
