Rigoletto is looking for his daughter Gilda. When a page announces that "Il Duca" is not to be disturbed, he realizes that the cortigiani have kidnapped his daughter & brought her to the Duke. He rages at them and finally pleads for her return, in vain. Sung with great emotion by Renato Bruson.

  • This was a performance at La Scala with Roberto Alagna as Il Duca and Andrea Rost as Gilda in 1994. He was 60 at the time...

  • This is one of the best Rigolettos. Sound, phrasing, intonations - many of modern Rigolettos are still to live up to that. And in this piece one can actually hear why is tune is so breathtakingly touching. It is in the rhythm of a beating heart, broken heart. There is no better perfomance - at least here on youtube.

  • interpetazione superba! che attore, che cantante!

  • Can someone tell me when this was recorded? And how old was Bruson then. Thx!

  • I'd love a translation to this.

  • I think he's done it better elsewhere: he was pretty far along when this was recorded. Still, one of my favorites.

  • grande VERDI!!!

  • so true.

  • Wonderful Bruson and great Verdi... Many thanks !

  • He seems to be rushing through the lyrics rather quickly. It seems to take away from the meaning.

  • Amazing performance by Renato Bruson. Thank you for sharing this gift.
