Free Music Notes for Vincenzo Bellini: I Capuleti e i Montecchi
Free Music Review: Almost unbearable beauty - Bellini sung to the point of ecstasy
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a magical recording... From the opening to the heartbreaking end, one is caught, captivated, spellbound. In fact, "spellbinding" is so completely the word I must use that I have to fight not to repeat myself.
Edita Gruberova is, of course, one of the world's most superb bel canto singers. Her voice is a lyric dramatic coloratura - no hint of strain in her top notes, beautiful gleaming colour all the way down, with agile facility and a superb way of stringing her vocal line along the radiance of a rising sun.
Agnes Baltsa is so unbeatable as Romeo that it is a privilege to hear her. There is such an almost... ferocious quality in her voice... a ferocity that is strictly disciplined within a superb technique. In her duet work with Gruberova, oh!! Oh! It's the stuff of legends!
The rest of the cast is very good indeed.
There are other recordings of this gorgeous opera - but believe me, not ONE of them approaches even the outer limits of this unmatched recording. I am unable to listen to "O quante volto" as sung by Gruberova without feeling tears start. It's simply that beautiful.
