Ian France - Opera Favourites from the Romantic Era
Ian France - Opera Favourites from the Romantic Era With suggestions of what versions to search out Bellini’s “Norma” “Mira, o Norma” Norma & Adalgisa, rivals in love, come to an understanding in this poignant duet CD: Montseratt Caballe &Fiorenzo Cossotto, cond.Cillario/LPO/RCA Caballe and Cossotto sing with great control and mostly softly (unlike Callas) YouTube: Anna Netrebko & Elina Garance Adalgisa (Garanca) pleads for Norma’s children to stay with her. In this concert version we don’t have to worry about Norma’s boys acting sensitively-our focus is on the heavenly music. As was customary in Italian operas at the time there is a fast, joyous cabaletta to round off the scene with Norma and Adalgisa promising to be lifelong “comrades”. Donizetti’s “Lucia di Lammermoor” “Sulla tomba” Edgar reflects on the tombs of his ancestors, Lucia joins him (turning his solo into a duet) and then the “big tune” is sung 3 times (listen out for a celebratory “wiggle” in the orchestra as they finish singing!) CD : Pavarotti & Sutherland cond.Bonynge/ROH/Decca Pavarotti and Sutherland were at their best in the Bel Canto repertoire. YouTube: Beczala & Netrebko In this extended scene Edgardo (Beczala) sings of his impending journey to France in the Stuart cause. Lucia (Netrebko) begs him to keep their love secret from her brother Enrico. Edgardo has sworn by his father’s grave to gain vengeance, but the music softens, the lovers kiss (cue applause!) Lucia sings “Verrano a te sull’aure” which Edgardo takes up and after her maid warns them to be on their way, both sing the “big tune” in unison.
