Umberto Giordano's Andrea Chenier
Andrea Bocelli, Violeta Urmana & Lucio Gallo
Orchestra e Coro Sinfonica di Milano, Giuseppe Verdi, Marco Armiliato
Andrea Bocelli stars in the title role of Giordano's romantic and passionate opera of life and death, set during the French Revolution.
Andrea Chénier, a historical figure and poet who lost his life to the French Revolution, gave Giordano and his librettist, Illica, inspiration for an opera of action, intrigue, and betrayal that touches and thrills.
The score and text beautifully underscore the triumph of love over death when Chénier and his beloved make their final exit to the guillotine. Accompanied by some of the most stirring music of the Italian repertoire, their closing duet is among opera's greatest moments.
This new recording partners Andrea Bocelli with the aristocratic soprano of Violeta Urmana, who has sung the role of Maddalena at the world's leading houses, including The Metropolitan Opera, New York.
Esté próximo y referencial Chenier le hará la competencia al nuevo Chenier de Daniela Dessi, Fabio Armiliato y ese aristócrata del canto llamado Carlo Guelfi.
