The score of Thomas' "Hamlet" is extremely impressive and the cast worthy. There have been quite a few operatic versions of the long play which would last about four hours complete. I think "Mignon" is more attractive.
Ah Dmitri. I was fortunate indeed to see you four or five times at the Royal Opera House. Always thrilling, with a voice and presence that reached my soul. Rest in peace, and thank you for your eternal voice
Of course, no soprano in the 19th century would have ended the aria with a beautifully floated high A-flat. Oh, no no no, Maestro Muti, that sort of thing never took place at the time of Verdi. Who ever would have thought of such a thing? Oh, no no no no no
Emozionante e stupefacente la performance di Keenlyside, un bravissimo attore/cantante che conoscevo pochissimo. Magnifica la Dessay e tutti gli interpreti di un'opera che ascolto per la prima volta. 🌹💯🙏😱
