Rossini / Park / Muenchner Rundfunkorche - Sigismondo - COMPACT DISCS [CD]
About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Classical
- Description: The Italian composer Gioachino Rossini is best known for his operas. Many of their overtures and arias were catchy tunes at the time and have remained so to this day. Although it is Rossini's comic operas that are primarily performed today, more than half of his stage works are in fact based on serious themes. One veritable rarity is the stage work InchSigismondoInch, which premiered in 1814 at the famous Teatro La Fenice in Venice but was only ever rarely performed afterwards. Presumably, the story on which it was based had no appeal for the audience at that time, because musically, the work is hardly less impressive than the InchItalian Girl in AlgiersInch, written during the previous year, or the InchBarber of SevilleInch, which followed two years later. The subject of the opera is, however, based on a long tradition. Rossini shows his protagonist, the fictional King Sigismondo, in extreme states of mental distress. Confusion and insanity reveal inner feelings, and it is only delirium that finally brings the truth to light. This Inchmadness operaInch is highly topical, both in it's subject matter and it's musical language - after all, Rossini is among the top ten most-performed composers of our time. A concert performance of this little-known and unjustly neglected masterpiece was given at Munich's Prinzregententheater on October 14, 2018 - in the original language, and by performers highly familiar with Rossini's music, which seems so easy but is in fact extremely difficult to sing. This extraordinary opera event - a festival of singing that received tumultuous applause as well as great critical acclaim - is now being released on BR-KLASSIK as a live recording.

Limited vinyl LP repressing in gatefold jacket. Bad is the seventh solo studio album by Michael Jackson. It was released on August 31, 1987, nearly five years after Jackson's previous studio album, Thriller. Bad was recorded during the first half of 1987.
