Puccini: Manon Lescaut (Complete Opera recorded in 2016)
Anna Netrebko, Yusif Eyvazov, Armando Piña, Carlos Chausson / Münchner Rundfunkorchester, Konzertvereinigung Wiener Staatsopernchor, Marco Armiliato
[ Deutsche Grammophon / 2 CD ]
Release Date: Friday 2 December 2016
This outstanding concert performance of Manon Lescaut with Anna Netrebko and Yusif Eyvazov was the absolute highlight of the 2016's Salzburg Festival - a moment of operatic glory, captured live for this unique release.
Anna excelled herself and fascinated the audience with the perfection of her exceptional voice, her unrivaled interpretation and her devotion to this very part - she is the Manon Lescaut of our time.
While Verismo already features the aria "In quelle trine morbide" and the fourth act of Manon Lescaut in a breathtaking studio-version, documenting her great passion to this work, the complete recording of Manon Lescaut will be a great addition to Anna's fans and opera lovers alike.
"Netrebko's performance makes it worth hearing. She charts Manon's journey from the ingenue of the first act, through the flighty vamp of the second to the tragic figure of the last very surely, and makes her final-act aria the emotional crux of the opera, always with a wonderfully rich, perfectly controlled sound, even when her Italian diction is hit-and-miss." The Guardian
"Netrebko's Manon soars over the rest of the cast, framed attentively, eloquently and imaginatively by Marco Armiliato and the Munich Radio Orchestra. It's a riveting, sometimes wayward performance that fails to sound remotely girlish in Act I but captures perfectly the greed, impetuousness, self-destructiveness and lust for life in Acts II and III, with a full-throated, full-hearted account of 'Sola, perduta, abbandonata'" BBC Music
"Netrebko has developed the vocal sweep to carry the big phrases through, and her high notes, generally a strength, are glorious here." Opera Now
