About This Item
Tenor Lawrence Brownlee is largely considered by critics and audiences alike to be the world's leading bel canto tenor. His previous on Delos was an enchanting array of Rossini arias which garnered him a Grammy nomination. Brownlee has a rich and varied repertoire, which is evident on this . He has mixed standards such as Donizetti's Don Pasquale, and L'elisir d'amore and Bellinis' I Puritani with lesser-performed pieces like Donizetti's Rita and La Favorite. For this , as in his previous, Brownlee is joined by Lithuania's Kaunas City Symphony Orchestra and the Kaunas State Choir. The brilliant interpretations and sensitive reading from conductor Constantine Orbelian lend themselves beautifully to Brownlee's impeccable voice.
