La Scala Chorus & Orch/Roberto Rizzi Brignoli, cond.
Under the baton of Roberto Rizzi Brignoli, a new generation of singers gave fresh life to Cilea’s most polished work in January 2000. Daniela Dessì, appearing at La Scala for the first time in the title role, was singled out for praise in the Italian press: while La Repubblica admired the “sensual tones” of her singing, La Nazione called it an interpretation which “touched the audience’s heart”. At her side are two of the finest Russian singers on the international stage today: Sergei Larin as Maurizio is heard in a role that sits perfectly for his voice, while Olga Borodina threatens to steal the show as the jealous Princess.
