Massenet: Manon - Zeani, Oncina, Borriello, Ventriglia; Rapalo. Napoli, 1964

$9.95



Description:

Virginia Zeani presents a compelling case that Jules Massenet’s style aligns more closely with verismo than often acknowledged. Her portrayal of Manon captures the character’s inner sensuality with remarkable subtlety, ensuring she never comes across as vulgar or overly provocative. Juan Oncina proves an ideal partner as Des Grieux, delivering a performance that balances elegance with passion. The sound is good, although there is intermittent light static throughout the performance.
