Verdi: Il Trovatore
Bergonzi, Price, Cossotto, Cappuccilli, Vinco; De Fabritiis
Buenos Aires, 1969
$9.95
Description:
Carlo Bergonzi brings elegance to Manrico, portraying him more as a passionate lover than a vengeful warrior. Fiorenza Cossotto is a fiery, untamed Azucena, while Piero Cappuccilli delivers one of the most stunning renditions of "Il balen" imaginable. Listening to such an ensemble at the height of their powers is a rare privilege, and one can only hope to experience artistry of this caliber in a live setting. The sound quality is excellent.
