More smexy Kurt Streit in his second act aria (preceded by the recitativo, "Unulfo, Garibaldo, in questo seno
muor la speranza"), from the Glyndebourne production of Händel's "Rodelinda".

Apparently, the director had a thing for having his cast throw themselves on the ground.

  • I ripped the DVD of this production, extracted the audio, and split it into individual songs and recitativi. Took hours, but hey worth it for the best production to date of this opera (IMO) on your iPod, no? Except maybe the original cast with Senesino playing Bertarido, that must have been something.

  • Definitely. To have heard Senesino sing those three "pathetic" arias throughout the opera and then burst into the some of the most difficult strings of coloratura in the end would have been heart-stopping. I also particularly like the tenor role... would have been nice to hear how the tenors might have sung in their day.

  • This is just amazing!!!

    Rodelinda is a masterpiece from Handel's repertoire of great operas. OMG, It is so beautiful, so deeply touching...Kurt Streit does it so well, it is such a pleasure to see and listen to his voice....

    Being a great fan of Handel's Operas, I think Rodelinda is on the top of my favorites, followed by Giulio Cesare.

  • He does such a good job with this -- I love this version. Streit was just perfect.
