Loved this presentation immensely. A must purchase because it is extremely similar in quality to the older one with Leontyne Price, Jussi Bjoerling, etc. Where have these people been when we've been subjected to mediocre performers of this great work. Thanks for posting.
@bs321321 They're the soloists for the Requiem; you can hear them individually at different points... (ie Anja Harteros sings the beginning of "Libera me...". :D
Also going to the Wiener Staats Oper today on a last minute ticket ! Had to check Requiem out on YouTube so I would know a little bit more about the piece....
@enantiodrom Si infatti è il paese che teme Dio non Verdi...Bisogna anche andare a considerare quello che voleva dire assumere posizioni come quelle di Verdi in quegli anni in Italia...
Uno de mis sueños sería cantar bajo la dirección de este grandioso Director, su ejecución, su estilo, su carácter, su pasión, su expresión, Maestro Pappano es usted grandioso y maravilloso, su admirador siempre! en Abril cantaré en el Auditorio Giuseppe Sinopoli de Roma
Me too I like Pappano but bnot the cast.... The soprano is not adapted for this repertoire.... Mozart is good for her....She must work on her intonation. Povero Verdi....
THE GUARDIAN:"The gem is Anja Harteros's soprano: her perfectly placed top notes send a shiver down the spine. A total triumph." THE TIMES: "Yet the icing on the cake is something of a revelation: Anja Harteross fearless, spell-binding soprano. Hear her soft intercessions and suddenly Judgment Day seems a few more years off."
It seems that every version of Verdi's Requiem is marred by a bad tenor (Villazon, Bocelli) and Saved by the Mezzo and Soprano! Anja HArteros is the reason I'll probably think about buying this CD! I love her! Sonia Ganassi is a great singer too!
what is different from the other Verdi's Requiem, an approach more in agreement with Verdi? I can hear a fantastic mezzo, Soian Ganassi among other very good singers,. Rolando Villazon did a very good job considering it was before his surgery, even more painful for him. Systematic nagging is tiring. The CD is not yet released!So give it a chance!
I am not really impressed....the orchestra does not have the depth of tone as the Berlin Philharmonic. Pappano tends to chop his phrases, where Abbado molds them....but the biggest thing I hear is how much an orchestra can add to this piece...as the Berlin did in their recording with Abbado on the CD or DVD. The La Scala orchestra under Karajan had more depth and tone.....maybe an off night, perhaps thats the sound Pappano wants. I however do not agree.
A great video. I am so happy to hear about this new recording. It is such a great news in time of Rolando's recovery to look forward for the new release of his work. Thank you.
PES bring me here:D

Trovo che questo sia un pezzo molto fantastico per mostrare un tema e di avventura guglia e una sorta di essere alta e la dominanza forte.

Sarà pure un paese che teme Dio, come dice Pappano, a me pare un po' una stupidaggine, sicuramente Verdi era ateo e anticlericale.

It is true that she is a lyrical soprano and not a dramatic one.
But her prestation in this role is for me good enough
