Verdi: Don Carlo / Muti, Teatro alla Scala

Amazon.fr
Dans cette version de Don Carlos, on perçoit avec infiniment de subtilité et d'émotion la complexité du drame vécu de l'intérieur par chacun des protagonistes, sans exception. Il faut dire que Carlo Maria Giulini a l'art d'éclairer le tissu orchestral au point de le rendre limpide, presque transparent. Luciano Pavarotti et Daniella Dessi dessinent des personnages tout en subtilité, tandis que le Philippe II de Samuel Ramey ponctue l'ouvrage d'une belle gravité de timbre. Une réussite incontestée. --Pierre Guillaume

Put together in evident haste, this collection is nevertheless a surefire, appetite-whetting starter kit both for the budding operaphile and for the simply intimidated. The samplings include some of the greatest voices from EMI's vaults: here you'll find the polar opposites Callas and Caballe, the golden wonder of Wunderlich and early Carreras, and a host of other singers who've made their stamp on this century. Emphasis is on the soprano and tenor range, while the lower voices are given short shrift, and the selections cleave predictably to standard Italian and French repertory (with an occasional surprise, such as an aria from Lalo's Le Roi d'Ys). Still, the nearly three and a half hours of music represented will make a ready convert of anyone who hasn't experienced the specially heightened, time-stopping expressivity--beyond the power of mere song--that is the aria's function and will likely spark a desire to explore the larger operatic context in several cases. And though the lack of a booklet with texts or at least bios of the artists is frustrating, this is a good place to begin for an overview of the mesmeric power extraordinary voices can wield. --Thomas May

OPERA HEAVEN.......2002-12-13

Probely this is a good buy for someone who is gest getting into the world of OPERA.Still a very good purchaes with fimiluar songs.

Incredibly Beautiful . . ........2001-10-27

If you love opera - this collection of some of the lovliest arias ever sung by artists from Caballe to Freni, from Delibes to Puccini - will inspire you. It is a wonderful gift for friends or for yourself.

Ultimate Aria.......2001-08-03

In my small operetic mind, this set of Cd's has completely captured me for the Opera. I was a young and upcoming musician in my youth. I'v been around the block "as it were" with the Classics. This collection is indeed, the benchmark upon which all others would hope to aspire.

Congradulations EMI for an incredible vision of the greatest opeatic moments recorded.

Gosh what's next?

Ralph Hassman

Ultimate indeed.......2000-08-02

If you don't like the idea of buying whole operas, or if you're a newcomer to opera - this is an extremely good collection / introduction, worth every single cent. The collection features many of the worlds greatest singers, giving their interpretations of some of the world's greatest arias. The compilation itself is very tasteful and covers a wide range from Handel to early 20th century composers. You won't miss any important stuff from the history of opera, except maybe Wagner and the most modern operas - I'll come back to that fact later. The compilers have actually put some lesser known, although no less beautiful, arias here, that oftenly are neglected on ordinary opera-collections, why the name `ultimate collection' is more than correct in that aspect.

EMI have a enormous archive to pick their recordings from, and that of course makes it easy to find first rate interpretations of all the arias included in this collection, and I do think that almost all of the arias are wonderfully sung here. It may be possible to find better performances of single numbers here and there, but I've not yet heard a more complete, wellmatched, and so thrillingly sung collection.

Well then, is there nothing wrong with this compilation? You might find it a little odd that there are so many soloarias and so few duets, terzettos a.s.o, especially since the drama in operas oftenly is greater in numbers with more than one singer. You might also wish that some of the recordings had been a little more modern (most of these recordings were made during the 50's, 60's & 70's) giving place to younger performers that still are singing on the stages, but those are minor objections when the over all quality is so high.

The maybe strongest objection to this collection is that there is not one single part from any of Wagner's operas, and not any number sung in german, nor is there any parts from modern or russian operas. That may be a miss if you're interested in Wagner, russian and modern opera - on the other hand I think you should watch Wagners, russian and modern operas before listening to recordings of them - and if you've seen them and liked them you will probably buy the whole opera anyway. Therefor I still think that this is a extremely strong and complete compilation - the best I've run into so far. Easy to listen to, yet never banal.

Pass this one up.......2007-06-23

For a live Don Carlo, I would recommend the Met's dvd with Domingo and Freni or the d'Oro cd edition with Corelli and Janowitz. I am a big fan of all the singers here, except the mezzo, whom I've never heard before or since. She is adequate in this recording, with sometimes a nice chest register and good diction, but in the big arias, she becomes potato-mouthed, unintelligible, and unnatural-sounding. I would call her performance adequate. Dessi is the most enjoyable here - very Italianate, the voice is perfectly balanced, she shows adequate emotion, with just a hint of strain on the highest notes. It's the men that drive me nuts here. They all three sing beautifully but as though they are some sort of singing machines. Wet noodles - all three of them - no emotion hardly at all. The worst is Pavarotti. Listen to him in his Decca recordings of the Duke and Edgardo, and compare him here. Where did the passion go? I'll tell you where: he himself says he was not fully prepared for these performances and that's why he slipped up one of the nights and was booed. I have wanted to love this recording but I rarely play it in comparison to my other Don Carlos. Don Carlo is a terribly passionate character and so is the entire opera. I heartily reommend getting the d'Oro Corelli recording if you don't have it - it will give you goosebumps - this one will leave you completely unsatified.

This Don Carlo is nearly perfect, especially Pavarotti.......2003-05-09

This is a recording that two groups must possess. 1-fans of Don Carlos, 2-fans of Pavarotti. I have nearly every Don Carlo recorded in the last four decades, and this is my favorite. I bought it to round out my library, and instead it has reached the top of my list. Pavarotti shows a musicianship here he had not attained recently. He is right on the mark musically and emotionally. Otello proved too big for him and may make many avoid this recording -- but they should not. Pavarotti sings with elegance and pure class. His voice has just the right heft. As for the rest of the cast, Paolo Coni is a fine Rodrigo and one can never say enough about Samuel Ramey. This is an expensive set, but necessary for any serious collector or fan.

FIVE STARS TO PAVAROTTI * * * * * !.......2000-04-28

This recording taken from a string of live performances from La Scala sounds great on CD. The voices and orchestra come through very clearly and there is very little stage noise and the audience keeps quite until after each act is over. Now if only all the singers were up to their roles. Daniela Dessi as Elisabetta is adequate (which is good as I have heard her on recordings in truly dreadful voice.) Perhaps this role was a little too mature for her at this stage in her career. Luciana D'Intino was also adequate, sounding at times shrill. Paolo Coni is often put down, but to these ears he makes a fine Rodrigo. His voice blends beautifully with Pavarotti's. After having recently heard the Decca/London Don Carlo with Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau as Rodrigo I would say Coni is revelation. I like and respect the artistry of Fischer-Dieskau, but listening to his Rodrigo is disturbing to the ears. Samuel Ramey does an excellent job (as he always does) as Filippo. Voice and temperment are just right for the king. You may recall that it was at these performances that Pavarotti was booed for a cracked note. Well, there are no cracked notes here, just glorious tones, amazing squillo, and a convincing performance. Don Carlo is one of the very last new roles for Pavarotti and in my opinion he made a very good choice in singing it. This recording, made in 1992 is of the four act version of the opera. I won't say this is the definitive recording of Don Carlo, but I do know that I prefer it to the Decca/London/Solti recording mentioned above (as wonderful as Bergonzi is!)
