Verdi: Rigoletto - Glossop, Pavarotti, Brooks, Marsee; Guadagno. 1973
$8.95
Description:
This performance of Rigoletto is a powerful reminder of why Luciano Pavarotti became a global sensation. His voice is radiant, his phrasing elegant, and his musicianship utterly natural—qualities that shine throughout. In the title role, Peter Glossop matches vocal warmth with a deep connection to the text, delivering an interpretation that is both stylish and emotionally resonant, complete with some thrilling high notes. Patricia Brooks offers a touching and vulnerable Gilda, though she encounters some difficulty with a few of the higher passages. There is brief digital interference during “Ella mi fu rapita” and “Tutte le feste,” but it does little to detract from the impact of the performance overall.
