Although it is in black&white, it is an important and precious historical document(Teatro San Carlo of Naples, 1958) and is definitely a must buy. The tenor Franco Corelli is outstanding as always, offering an extremely romantic and heroic interpretation of the hero (Don Alvaro) with his instantly recognizable strong, rich, dark, but highly artistically nuanced timbre. By those qualities, he manages to convey all the aspects of the character, (as Minnie observed), ranging from the romantic hero in Act I duet (+ his exquisite looks), through the doomed warrior, and finishing with expiating monk.
Renata Tebaldi is another treasure of this recording. Both her singing and acting is otherworldly, taking into account the entire character of Donna Leonora in all its complexity (aristocratic woman in love, desperate expiating woman etc.) She portrays her role both with her "voce d'angelo" with extremely nuanced timbre (forte-piano, as well as with her theatrically noble acting. --Amazon customer
