Donizetti's rollicking comic opera "The Elixir of Love" receives a scintillating performance in this early 1970's London/Decca recording. Featuring an unbeatable cast, headed by Joan Sutherland and Luciano Pavarotti, this wonderful interpretation demonstrates singing of the highest levels of artistic integrity- definitive, passionate, lyrical, committed. The English Chamber Orchestra responds to Richard Bonynge's direction to provide sharp, colorful orchestral support, and the Ambrosian Opera Chorus' performance can only be described as brilliant. Donizetti wrote immediately attractive operatic works, this "Elixir of Love" being a perfect example.
Bergamo-born Gaetano Donizetti (1797–1848) composed more than seventy operas before his career was cut short by illness in the early 1840s. L’Elisir d’Amore, one of his most beloved works, was composed in relative haste — Donizetti completed the opera in the six-week period between the opening of his Ugo, Conte di Parigi on March 13, 1832, and the start of Elisir rehearsals in early May. The Elisir premiere, at Milan’s Teatro della Canobbiana on May 12, 1832, was a huge success; by the end of the decade, Elisir had been given productions in Naples, Milan, Berlin, Vienna, London, New York and Paris.
Nemorino was one of Luciano Pavarotti’s signature roles, and he is heard to brilliant effect on Richard Bonynge’s 1970 Decca recording, opposite Joan Sutherland’s somewhat starchy but authoritative Adina. Bonynge leads the English Chamber Orchestra and a team which not only conveys jollity but which sings and plays as though full opera house applause is to be expected a the end of each number.
