Il Turco In Italia - G.Rossini - Teatro alla Scala 1997 Don Geronio : Alfonso Antoniozzi Fiorilla : Mariella Devia Selim : Michele Pertusi Prosdocimo : Roberto De Candia Don Narciso : Paul Austin Kelly Dir. : Riccardo Chailly
Bravi, bravi....that is comedy and singing on the ligt side....Devia learnt er lessons and without copying Callas is very close to her....Just marvellous to listen to.....
...molto vicina alla Callas? Scherzi forse...vi farete corbellar. Un pezzo di legno e' piu'' espressivo e il timbro e' ordinario. Bravo Antoniozzi come sempre.
Brilliant rendition! Devia is astonishing, as always. Also, funny to hear how Rossini copy/pasted himself with bits from Singnor Bruschino (Io danari vi daro).
