Roberto Alagna and Angela Gheorghiu appeared together in L'elisir d'amore at the Lyon National Opera for just two performances -- staged specially to facilitate this recording for DVD, directed for the smaII screen by Brian Large. Opera's most ceIebrated couple captivated the audience, perfectly cast as the true-hearted peasant Nemorino and the rich, beautifuI and coquettish Adina, whose love he finalIy wins. Their exceptional interpretations were compIemented by those of Simone Alaimo as Dulcamara and Roberto ScaItriti as Belcore. Delighted applause greeted musicaI high spots throughout the opera, with AIagna's rendition of the celebrated romance 'Una furtive lagrima' sparking off a thunderous ovation.
As tender and charming as it is joIly and amusing, L'eIisir d'amore tells how Nemorino tries to win the love of Adina by taking a love potion - which, in reality, is no more mysterious a Iiquor than red wine. Frank DunIop's uncompIicated and liveIy Lyon staging is set in southern ltaly in the 1930s, with sun-drenched scenery by Roberto PIaté and fresh, unsophisticated costumes by Jacques Schmidt and Emmanuel Peduzzi. Conductor Evelino Pidò's study of the manuscript of Donizetti's originaI and revised score for L'eIisir d'amore reveaIs many subtIeties in the charming and meIodic music for this cIassic of sentimentaI comedy. |
