    [ill □§@ Pristine □ □ Pristine DIGITAL AUDIO PACO 158 Puccini XR XR Manon Lescaut PACO 158 Giacomo Puccini's third opera, Manon Lescaut, premiered at the Teatro Regio, Turin in 1893 and was the first of his operas to garner I I international acclaim. Musically the opera showed clear evidence of Puccini's growing mastery of tuneful lyricism and his ability to Rn~~t~u~ n evoke a sense of place. The story of a doomed heroine was one that Puccini would return to with even greater success in La Bohf?me (1896), Tosca (1900) and Madama Butterfly (1904). The New York premiere in 1907 featured Lina Cavalieri, Enrico Caruso and Antonio Scotti in the cast, and Puccini himself in the audience, but fell out of the repertoire in between 1929 and 1949. When a new Met production of Manon Lescaut was mounted in 1949 it featured Swedish t enor Jussi Bjbrllng as Des Grieux. Bjbrling learned only two new roles after branching out from his operatic home at the Royal Swedish Opera in the lat e 1930s. One was Don manon licia albanese Carlo, which opened Rudolf Bing's tenure as general manager of the Metropolitan Opera in November 1950, the other was Des Grieux in Manon Lescaut. Over ten years, between 1949 and 1959, Bjbrling sang the role just 25 times, but we have no less than four des grieux Jussi bjbrling complete recordings of him in this opera: the Met's first ever broadcast of the opera in 1949, a studio recording in 1954, this Met broadcast from 1956, and a bi-lingual broadcast from Stockholm in 1959.

    [Q]oi© □ PACO 164 DIGITAL AUDIO Beecham ,..;., PACO 164 ., Puccini: La Boheme '\, , , This 1956 recording of Lo Boheme continues to stand out in the catalogue. Soloists and conductor combined to create a classic of recorded opera oozing with musicality. This remarkable achievement occurred -despite the cast and conductor having little rehearsa l time or previous col laborations to fa ll back on. This was the only time PabYm~(!_t\ Beecham and Bjiirling worked together, and while Bjiirling and de los Angeles had recorded Pogliocci in 1953 and I ,, \ appeared in four performances of Faust at the Metropolitan the same year, they never sang in a performance of Lo Boheme on the same stage. ,~ Rodolfo was Jussi Bjiirling's most frequent stage role (with 114 performances) and it lasted the longest in his repertoire (1934-1960). In an opera packed with memorable tunes Rodolfo has many of them and Bjiirling's truly \ beautiful voice captures the poetic tenderness of the exchanges with Mimi in act one before easing into the rodolfo Jussi bjorling .. lyricism needed for the aria and closing duet. As someone not particularly renowned for his stage acting, it is to our ) benefit that Bjiirling does all his acting with his voice. As the tragedy of Mimi's illness unfolds Bjiirling is able to mimi victoria de los angeles expose Rodolfo's despair simply via his vocal timbre and co louring. On ly the hard-hearted can listen to act four marcello robert merrill ~ · without a tear and those who persist in thinking as Bjiirling as a 'cold' singer are surely disproved by this display of true Italianate style.

  • ARSC Journal, Fall 1989 213 Sound Recording Reviews
    Sound Recording Reviews The Music and Arts Programs of America CD offers the entire broadcast program of January 19, 1952, a typical though not particularly exceptional example of Reiner's work on the radio at this time. His Bart6k "calling card" included the two Rumanian Dances in the orchestration of Leo Weiner (not Tibor Serly, as indicated). He recorded both the Debussy Suite and Ravel's Le tombeau de Couperin music two days later with the same orchestra for RCA Victor, and had previously recorded Til Eulenspiegel with the RCA Victor Symphony Orchestra, which included players from NBC. The gem of this present CD is the Ravel Suite, a superb reading of that composer's precise timbre and rhythmic subtlety. Possibly for legal reasons, the orchestra is labelled "The Symphony of the Air," a designation that did not appear until after Toscanini's retirement in 1954. Despite minor pitch problems, the CD transfer is acceptable for its vintage, if only because the RCA Victor recordings of the three principal works are no longer available. Of these recordings from broadcasts, the two most important by far are the Salome and the Walkilre Act II, not only for Fritz Reiner's conducting but also for their exceptional casting. In both releases, the sheer excitement generated by singers and conductor will overcome any sonic limitations. Reviewed by Philip Hart New Reiner CDs Beethoven: Piano Concerto No. 4 in G major, Op. 58 (Recorded Orchestra Hall April 22, 23, 1963); Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat major, Op. 73 (Recorded Orchestra Hall May 4, 12, 1961).

  • Il Trovatore
    Synopsis Act I: The Duel Count di Luna is obsessed with Leonora, a young noblewoman in the queen’s service, who does not return his love. Outside the royal residence, his soldiers keep watch at night. They have heard an unknown troubadour serenading Leonora, and the jealous count is determined to capture and punish him. To keep his troops awake, the captain, Ferrando, recounts the terrible story of a gypsy woman who was burned at the stake years ago for bewitching the count’s infant brother. The gypsy’s daughter then took revenge by kidnapping the boy and throwing him into the flames where her mother had died. The charred skeleton of a baby was discovered there, and di Luna’s father died of grief soon after. The gypsy’s daughter disappeared without a trace, but di Luna has sworn to find her. In the palace gardens, Leonora confides in her companion Ines that she is in love with a mysterious man she met before the outbreak of the war and that he is the troubadour who serenades her each night. After they have left, Count di Luna appears, looking for Leonora. When she hears the troubadour’s song in the darkness, Leonora rushes out to greet her beloved but mistakenly embraces di Luna. The troubadour reveals his true identity: He is Manrico, leader of the partisan rebel forces. Furious, the count challenges him to fight to the death. Act II: The Gypsy During the duel, Manrico overpowered the count, but some instinct stopped him from killing his rival. The war has raged on.

  • Verdi's Rigoletto
    Verdi’s Rigoletto - A discographical conspectus by Ralph Moore It is hard if not impossible, to make a representative survey of recordings of Rigoletto, given that there are 200 in the catalogue; I can only compromise by compiling a somewhat arbitrary list comprising of a selection of the best-known and those which appeal to me. For a start, there are thirty or so studio recordings in Italian; I begin with one made in 1927 and 1930, as those made earlier than that are really only for the specialist. I then consider eighteen of the studio versions made since that one. I have not reviewed minor recordings or those which in my estimation do not reach the requisite standard; I freely admit that I cannot countenance those by Sinopoli in 1984, Chailly in 1988, Rahbari in 1991 or Rizzi in 1993 for a combination of reasons, including an aversion to certain singers – for example Gruberova’s shrill squeak of a soprano and what I hear as the bleat in Bruson’s baritone and the forced wobble in Nucci’s – and the existence of a better, earlier version by the same artists (as with the Rudel recording with Milnes, Kraus and Sills caught too late) or lacklustre singing in general from artists of insufficient calibre (Rahbari and Rizzi). Nor can I endorse Dmitri Hvorostovsky’s final recording; whether it was as a result of his sad, terminal illness or the vocal decline which had already set in I cannot say, but it does the memory of him in his prime no favours and he is in any case indifferently partnered.

Callas and Tebaldi have been chosen as the subjects of the reviews because of their renown as singers, the closely coinciding cir• cumstances of their careers and the polarities which they represented in the issue of acting versus singing in operatic performance.
