Questa edizione cinematografica de "La Cenerentola" è un capolavoro: tutto è perfetto, una vera pietra miliare nella storia dell'opera e dello spettacolo.
Questa è un'edizione STORICA de La Cenerentola.. Tutti bravissimi, ma Paolo Montarsolo dimostra una bravura ineguagliata e, penso, ineguagliabile. Spettacoli come questo andrebbero diffusi anche nelle scuole... L'opera italiana ha segnato un'epoca, ma stiamo velocemente disperdendo questo stupendo patrimonio
It is the moral center. The codice (the book) represents the law, which was invented to protect us from all killing each other. The miracle is: it works sometimes.
@@gamerdaddy Yeah It's hard to put an exact reason why this part is so compelling. Is it the smooth transitions between numbers which perfectly matches the escalation of chaos and emotion, or the simple humor of seeing Don Magnifico strutting in with the census and being ignored by everyone? I come back to this scene every couple months haha.
@@michaeljurado7224 Haha, same here, dude. Big hug from BRASIL! :D Could you please tell me where you're from? You see, I was born in the 70s and I still find AMAZING being able to talk with people from all over the world, lol.
Wonderful Montarsolo, he is the best basso-buffo ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Such a talented singing actor. He said in an interview(in Italian) that he didn't know how he managed to act buffo roles. He said that acting "just" comes, you don't have to think about it. I think you don't have to think to acting only if you aren't a common mortal being, but a genius like him!
@@TimothyCHenderson I saw him perform Don Pasquale at San Francisco in 1984 or 85. When he was slapped by Norina and rejected by her Montarsolo ‘s performance of a man realizing his foolishness was crushing. It brought tears to the eyes of the audience. He was “Magnifico” in non-buffo roles too.
The great italian director Gianandrea Gavazzeni (1909-1996) - probably the one and the only "Kapellmeister" of italian music direction - He did never loves Rossini too much. However, Gavazzeni did record one Opera of Him: La Cenerentola. I think this is because this Opera it's the best Rossini's work ever. The Drama could be not so perfect, but Musically it's a insuperable composition.
The best Cenerentola I ever saw was Flicka and Rocky Blake .......next best was the NYCO production - was in PBS in late 1980....Rocky as the Prince, Gianna Rolandi as one of the sisters, A!an Titus as Dandini, Susanne Marsee as Cenerentola
Regia dell'indimenticabile Jean Pierre Ponnelle: deliziosa, ispirata dalla musica eppure originalissima: un capolavoro che ha fatto scuola! Quelli sì, che erano registi!
Oh my goodness, that performance was EXTRAORDINARY. I demand to know the singers' names, they are all fabulous. Especially Angelina: I have always said that no one would ever beat Cecilia Bartoli as Angelina, but I was just proved wrong! Does anyone know where I can get the video or DVD of this? This is fabulous, really. And I have to admit: I think I am falling for that Don Ramiro!
