Gianni Schicchi: "Spogliati, bambolino" (Levine)

[Isidore98]

Sadly the baritone makes very little of the glorious melody "addio firenze" (although the others do) - this passage should be a musically breathtaking sequence but the baritone throws it away.

0:20 The way S.Blythe acts her small bribing scene is a gem.

My only reservation is that she exudes too much amiable aura to buy her as a bitch...

Stunning production. Wonderfully staged acted and sung!

I love Gianni Schicchi's music. Puccini almost reinvented himself in this unexpectedly ingenious comedy towards the end of his career...

We're doing this opera at ORU in the fall, I'm playing gherardo and I'm so excited!

The whole Triptych I hope?

No, unfortunatley, we're just doing Gianni Schicchi, but as a small school it's quite difficult to find enough people just for this ensemble. We have everyone though! :)

I hope one day the whole Triptichon will be available on dvd from the Met, recorded in 2007.

You and so many others, I think they're taking this long time because they're trying to decide between HDDVD and blue ray still
