A Tenors Valentine
Posted by admin on December 3, 2011
Comments Off
This collection of previously released material is one of the best and least expensive featuring the Three Tenors, but its link to Valentine’s Day, with red hearts, flowers, and a candy box added to the cartoon on the cover, is rather contrived. Most of the songs are about love and many (e.g., “Una furtiva lagrima,” “Che gelida manina,” the duet from Madame Butterfly, and “Recondita armonia”) are about a Valentine’s Day kind of love. But the aria from Gianni Schicchi is about love of a city, not a person, and many are about lost love (“Vesti la giubba,” “E lucevan le stelle,” the bitter end of Carmen, and “Addio fiorito asil.”) And one (“La donna e mobile”) has a cynicism unsuited to the lovers’ day. Still, the selection is all prime material, and the singing (with a few trifling exceptions) is outstanding. Note that this is a compilation from various recordings, not an actual Three Tenors concert–and a few sopranos show up for duets. No texts or translations are provided; it would be unrealistic to expect them at this price. –Joe McLellan

Although not well known in America, Kostas Paskalis (1929 2007) was one of the leading baritones in Europe during the 1960s and 70s.
As Paskalis made few recordings, this album is a rare and treasured chance to hear one of the great Rigolettos of recent times. At this
writing, it is his only available recording of the role that also features the legendary Luciano Pavarotti and magnificent diva Renata Scotto.
Opera d Oro presents Grand Tier, a deluxe edition of the most beloved Opera d Oro performances with original artwork by Rafal
Olbinski and Opera d Oro s best remastered sound! Featuring a 64-page booklet with historic photos, a complete Italian libretto and
new original English translation, and an essay on the performance by Bill Parker.
