Carlo Maria Giulini - Overture - Le nozze di Figaro 1958

[eliyaguy]

This makes me so happy! In 1958 I was a child , 10 years old, There was practically no opera in Israel at that time, and traveling to Tel Aviv was a tedious journey. Nevertheless, my father, who was an MD of the old generation, decided this is something we are not going to miss. So we went to TA, all of us, parents and kids, to the Giulini + La Scala of Milano in Figaro, and the next year - to their Don Giovanni, and it's all under my skin, somehow, and this recording revives the memory....

What a modern sound! Great for 1958. Genious! Amazing!!

Esecuzione brillante, lontana dai tempi lenti e solenni dell'ultimo Giulini (che pure hanno il loro fascino).

@deadlift65 i agree with you but slow tempo of the last part of his career are incredible fascinating

Moi j'aime beaucoup, ça ne doit pas être trop soutenue justement mais plutôt aérien et rapide, c'est un présage de la folle journée qui s'annonce.

Orchestra? A very fast tempo that he does not sustain.
