Rossini: Il Barbiere di Siviglia (The Barber of Seville) (1974) ReviewNobody will deny that this opera is the masterpiece of Rossini. Everything in this opera reflects his genius talent and is so enjoyable from the beautiful melodious music with so many belcanto techniques to the comical story itself. I have seen this opera performed in three versions and performances, and this DVD performance is the best of all the three.
In this performance we will be enchanted by the naughty acting and delicate singing of wellknown Teresa Berganza as the mutinous Rosina, in her rich soprano voice singing perfect belcanto techniques. She is matched by the comical performance of Luigi Alva as Count Almaviva alias Lindoro in his soft light tenor voice, his belcanto singing adding to the magnificence and beauty of the music. Herman Prey in his clear baritone voice as the mischievous Figaro and wellknown Bass Baritone singer Enzo Dara contributed to the excellent performance, so that the whole opera become a continuous joy to be watched and listened to.
We also liked the beautiful and matching background scenery and the harmonious choirs.
In short there is no such performance is as magnificent and excellent in singing or acting as this DVD version.Rossini: Il Barbiere di Siviglia (The Barber of Seville) (1974) OverviewClaudio Abbado gives a commanding performance in this production of Rossini's comic opera The Barber of Seville.Hermann Prey brings to life Rossini's character of Figaro and his hectic life with a terrific supporting cast of Teresa Berganza, Luigi Alva, Enzo Dara, and Paolo Montarsolo.Directed by Jean-Pierre Ponnelle, the film is visually stunning and one can see why this production is destined to be a classic.Hermann Prey: Figaro Teresa Berganza: Rosina Luigi Alva: Count Almaviva Enzo Dara: Bartolo Paolo Montarsolo: Don Basilio Renato Cesari: Fiorello Stefania Malagu: Berta Luigi Roni: Officer Hans Kraemer: Ambrogio Karl Schaidler: Notary Bruno Bartoletti conducting New Philharmonia Orchestra and Ambrosian Singers
