Description: Verdi / Tommaso / Hernandez - Un Ballo in Maschera [New SACD] Hybrid SACD Artist: Verdi / Tommaso / Hernandez Title: Un Ballo in Maschera Condition: Format: SACD Release Date: 2023 Label: Pentatone UPC: 8717306260480 Genre: Classical Artists Maestro Marek Janowski, the Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte-Carlo and the Transylvania State Philharmonic Choir present Giuseppe Verdi's Un ballo in maschera (1859), together with a stellar cast consisting of Freddie de Tommaso (Riccardo), Lester Lynch (Renato) and Saioa Hernández (Amelia). Un ballo in maschera is Verdi's tragicomic masterpiece, in which the composer skilfully switches gears between the light and tragic, as well as between his earlier and more mature style. As such, it is both an entertaining and highly sophisticated work. The three main soloists are all seasoned Verdi interpreters, while Janowski approaches this ingenuous score with his eye for symphonic architecture, resulting in a performance that is lively and balanced. Marek Janowski is one of the most celebrated conductors of our time, and has a vast Pentatone discography, mostly consisting of German operas and symphonic works. After Cavalleria rusticana and Il Tabarro (both 2020), this is his third Italian opera recording for the label. Lester Lynch also has a longstanding relationship to Pentatone, and starred in many opera recordings, including Otello (2017), Cavalleria rusticana and Il Tabarro (both 2020), as well as La Fanciulla del West, Madama Butterfly (both 2021), and La Traviata (2022). The Transylvania State Philharmonic Choir has featured on several opera recordings, while the Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte-Carlo appeared on Arabella Steinbacher's Fantasies, Rhapsodies & Daydreams (2016). Freddie de Tommaso and Saioa Hernández make their Pentatone debut.© DirectToU LLC. All Rights Reserved.
