VERDI
Verdi Arias I [Verdi Heroines]
Maria Callas (soprano) / Phiharmonia Orchestra, Nicola Rescigno

[ Warner Classics Maria Callas Remastered / CD ]

Release Date: Wednesday 4 February 2015

This recital brings together three operas from the earlier years of Verdi's career (Nabucco, Ernani and Macbeth) and one of his greatest mature masterpieces (Don Carlo). Callas sang all of them on stage apart from Ernani, and Lady Macbeth proved a triumph for her when she opened the La Scala season in December 1952. Gramophone greeted this recital by saying: 'Mme Callas has seldom had such a field day and her dramatic instinct is well nigh perfect in interpreting these wonderful pages, each characterised convincingly - and differently.'
