Montserrat Caballé, Luciano Pavarotti, Sherrill Milnes, Bonaldo Giaiotti, Richard Van Allan, Anna Reynolds, Annette Céline & Fernando Pavarotti

London Opera Chorus & National Philharmonic Orchestra, Peter Maag

"Caballé gives a splendidly dramatic portrait of the heroine and Pavarotti's performance is full of creative, detailed imagination. Maag's sympathetic reading, by underlining the light and shade, consistently brings out the atmospheric qualities of Verdi's conception ... brilliantly played and vividly recorded."

Verdi: Luisa Miller


Giuseppe Sabbatini, Darina Takova, Alexander Vinogradov, Ursula Ferri, Arutjun Kotchinian, Damiano Salerno

Orchestra and Chorus of Teatro La Fenice di Venezia, Maurizio Benini

Luisa Miller is an opera that abounds in splendid moments of music and one that occupies a central role in the evolution of Verdi’s dramaturgy. The opera was staged on the evening of

8th December 1849. The performance was a resounding success and the opera continued to affirm itself in further performances. This cd plays the last production staged at Teatro La

Fenice di Venezia, last May 2006. Luisa Miller requires great technical gifts and vocal extension of its four leading roles. Luisa (Darina Takova) is portrayed now with delicate touches now

with bold strokes, in a manner that anticipates the great heroines of the popular trilogy. Rodolfo, here interpreted by Roberto Sabbatini, has a very difficult mid-high tessitura and the classical

boldness of the tenor is accompanied by openly elegiac accents that had rarely before been heard in the tenor roles created by Verdi.
