Beautiful yet neglected opera
Eric J Hearst | Takoma Park, MD, USA | 06/03/2000
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This recording of one of Ponchielli's "pre-Gioconda" operas is truly amazing. Reproduced from a live recording in 1979, the remastering alows for studio sound while retaining the dramatic intensity found mainly in a live performance. Special mention must be made of the prayer in Act I "Spirito creator su lui discendi". The soloists in this recording may not be as familiar as Domingo, Marton, etc. However, they bring this unjustly forgotten opera to life in a special way. It is the only other Ponchielli opera to be recorded and is a must for collectors. The only drawback is that there is no libretto or synopsis."
