Verdi: Otello (Opus Arte)

The first of Verdi's two late Shakespearian operas stands as one of the great masterpieces of grand opera. José Cura, ranked among the world's leading interpreters of Verdi's music, takes the title role in Willy Decker's profound and intense production, recorded live at the Liceu, Barcelona in 2006.

[Alidoro]

Sí, realmente es malo si uno toma en cuenta el legato, por ejemplo, o la capacidad de cantar a mezza voce (ambos inexistentes en Cura). Pero es lo que hay y en el país de los ciegos el tuerto es rey.

They didn't exactly break the bank with the sets and costumes, did they?

This soprano is great but Cura`s intonation sucks!

This wonderful Liceu-Production deeply moves my heart and my soul!José in best condition and Krassimira a fragile Desdemona. Intelligent solutions in a very clear staging.

I regret, that I missed to see it in Barcelona!

Bravissimo José!!!

Yes, she sings divinely, but he has a strange pronunciation and vocal production...
