L' italiana in Algeri - Venice 1984

[komputerola3]

Fatalne oświetlenie sceny, solistów słabo widać, można się domyślać jak się w lepszym świetle prezentują..., obsada głosowo wyśmienita, brawissimo.

Grazie :-)

Tutto sommato discreto!

La regia, le luci e la scenografia non mi hanno entusiasmato più di tanto!

Per ora, considero come miglior versione quella al Met con Montarsolo, la stessa Horn, per la regia del grande Jean-Pierre Ponnelle!

Fantastic singers, but the orchestra and chorus are appalling!

Quand je pense que j'ai vu ça et, juste la veille, la jeune J. Anderson dans la Somnambule au Théâtre Malibran, je crois rêver. Retrouverons nous encore ce degré de qualité un jour ?

Thank you so much for posting it. This is a treasure!

Wow!  The entire opera..and one of my favorite performances by Ramey, THE Rossini bass of the 20th century!

Grazie per questo post! But it's not Henry Lewis the conductor at curtain calls, Henry Lewis was black! I don't recognize this conductor.

ELVIRA was Denia Mazzola, that became Gavazzeni's wife, now his widow;

ZULMA was Gloria Banditelli, a very fine baroque mezzosoprano;

HALY could be Silvano Pagliuca, as in CD.

Scenes and costumes by Emanuele LUZZATI

Regia di Roberto DE SIMONE

It was in Spring 1984, first week of April, I think.

@lojundolo I think the conductor was Gianluigi Gelmetti

[gustavometz]

@alfillirico Yes, he is Gelmetti, still with brown hair
