Maria Luigia Borsi, Soprano London Symphony Orchestra • Yves Abel Naxos is proud to introduce a lyric soprano whose future as one of the great voices of the 21st Century seems assured. Maria Luigia Borsi’s performances have been critically acclaimed for their “grace, beauty, animation and variety” (The Sunday Times). Borsi’s performance triumphs on the works which appear in this début solo album, such as Respighi’s Il tramonto, for which The Scotsman admired her “sultry voice, beautifully controlled… a perfect match for the broody viola and cello lines which provide the bedrock for this touching tale of love and loss.” Ms Borsi’s sublime singing is supported here by the superlative London Symphony Orchestra conducted by award-winning conductor Yves Abel. Her Willow Song from Verdi’s Otello has been described as ‘gorgeously sung’ (Opera News) and her role in Puccini’s Turandot as demonstrating ‘extraordinary communicative skills’ (Opera Magazine). This programme includes some of the most moving and dramatic arias from Italian opera, including the tragic heartbreak of Madama Butterfly and the shimmering beauty of Catalani’s Ebben? Ne andrò lontana from La Wally.
