{"product_id":"christophe-rousset_fausto_2024","title":"Fausto","description":"It was around 1825 that Louise Bertin, a student of Reicha and a friend of Berlioz, took on the theme of Faust with all the energy and confidence of a 20-year-old woman. The composer exceeded all public expectations and won over critics with her boldness. Colorful orchestration, charming cantabiles, valiant choruses… everything seemed to promise the work a place in the repertoire. However, the closure of the Théâtre-Italien in 1831 after three performances decided otherwise: the score would slumber for 190 years in the cellars of the Bibliothèque nationale de France. The main role, originally conceived for the mezzo-soprano Rosmunda Pisaroni, was ultimately created by the tenor Domenico Donzelli. Christophe Rousset presents here a complete recording on historical instruments – its original version that has never been heard, even during the composer's lifetime. Once again, Les Talens Lyriques join forces with the Palazzetto Bru Zane in the rediscovery of lesser-known French operas.","brand":"Christophe Rousset","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58509066404184,"sku":null,"price":23687890.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/8055776010144.jpg?v=1789770858","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/christophe-rousset_fausto_2024","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
