Buenos Aires, 1967
$9.95
Description:
Cornell MacNeil was a regular presence in Buenos Aires during the 1960s, captivating audiences with his performances in the great Verdi roles. As Simon Boccanegra in this recording, he demonstrates why he was a master of Verdi’s operas. His voice possesses a rich, dark hue, complemented by a thrilling, ringing top.
Ilva Ligabue, a soprano who, despite performing in prestigious venues, never fully reached international stardom, holds her own admirably alongside MacNeil. Her performance is both solid and compelling. The sound is excellent.
