La force du destin/1954

Description

Exceptional reissue meticulously restored in 24-bit/96Hz, produced by Abbey Road Studios from the original tapes. Relentlessly pursued by Fate, Leonora in "La Force du Destin" (Verdi) is a harried heroine, who expresses herself through an extended range of passions and anxieties. Callas's stage experience in "La Force du Destin" was limited to her early years in Italy - in fact, Leonora was her first Verdi role. But, as Lord Harewood, founder of the magazine "Opera," noted, her studio interpretation demonstrates "an unparalleled musical sensitivity and imagination, as well as a unique understanding of the musical and dramatic context." She is surrounded by an impressive cast, led by her mentor, conductor Tullio Serafin.
