Описание

Блистательная работа маэстро Мути - триумф на Зальцбургском фестивале! Возрождение забытого шедевра Меркаданте - оперы 'Двое Фигаро', в которой либреттистом Феличе Романо излагается альтернативная версия знаменитого сюжета Бомарше. В роли 'второго Фигаро' выступает переодетый Керубино, которому при помощи Сюзанны, на этот раз успешно противостоящей уловкам своего мужа, удаётся добиться руки дочери графа Альмавивы.

Рецензия

Рецензия от издателя
Saverio Mercadante's opera I due Figaro saw its first modern staging in Salzburg under the direction of the Italian maestro Riccardo Muti. Only in recent years have musicologists acknowledged Mercadante's pivotal role in the development of the Italian Bel canto. I due Figaro presents an amusing subject which by affinity forms a trilogy with Rossini's Il Barbiere di Siviglia and Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro. This debut release on the Ducale label was recorded live in 2011 at the Teatro Aligheri, Ravenna.
Рецензия от издателя
Thanks to the commitment of Maestro Riccardo Muti and under his direction, the opera in two acts 'I due Figaro' saw its first modern staging in Salzburg, then in Ravenna and now it is also available in CD.
Born in Altamura, in the province of Bari, Saverio Mercadante studied in Naples, where his family settled. Together with Vincenzo Bellini, he is considered the most representative member of the 19th century Neapolitan School. He remained for a long time in the shadow of the four great operatic composers (Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti and Verdi). Only in recent years have musicologists began to look at his role in the development of Italian Belcanto. I due Figaro' presents an amusing subject which by affinity forms a trilogy with Rossini's 'Il Barbiere di Siviglia' and Mozart's 'Le Nozze di Figaro'. The six characters are presented each with its own solo performance, mixed with more complex orchestrated parts. The genuine melodic vein of the Neapolitan School is evident in the play and it makes use of several stylistic levels which reflect the characters' social status.
Live recording from Teatro Aligheri, Ravenna, in June 2011. Essays by Giovanni Carli Ballola and Paolo Cascio; libretto, pictures and biographies are included in the sumptuous booklet. Quality packaging and presentation. Wonderful singing.

Review

AllMusic Review by Blair Sanderson [-]
Riccardo Muti's 2011 performances of Saverio Mercadante's I due Figaro (The Two Figaros) were the first it had received since 1835, and this Ducale release of the presentation at the Teatro Alighieri in Ravenna, Italy, is the world-premiere recording. The story of this comic opera is a sequel to events in the Beaumarchais plays, which inspired Rossini's Barber of Seville and Mozart's Marriage of Figaro; the characters of Figaro, Susanna, Cherubino, and the Count and Countess Almaviva are seen a decade later in another farce of disguises and deception. The music is very much in the animated style of Rossini, with an exotic quality that Mercadante discovered on his visit to Madrid, and the mood of the opera is brightened by the combination of Neapolitan tunefulness and Spanish dance rhythms. With Mario Cassi as Figaro, Eleonora Buratto as Susanna, Annalisa Stroppa as Cherubino, Antonio Poli as the Count, and Asude Karayavuz as the Countess, the talented cast is energetic and lively, especially in the rapidfire patter, though there is some lovely bel canto singing in the many cavatinas that admirers of Donizetti and Bellini will appreciate. The Orchestra Giovanile Luigi Cherubini gives Muti a sunny instrumental blend to work with, and the woodwinds stand out for their distinctive timbres. Considering that this is a live recording, the audio is quite clear and relatively noise-free, and the orchestra has a warm, vibrant presence.
