“Bartoli finds pathos as well as broad comedy in Fiorella, the wife with the roving eye in Il turco, and character and voice are magnificently matched. Cesare Lievi and Daniela Schiavone's production - clownish costumes and comic strip furniture - may weary the eye, but turning Rossini and Romani's poet in search of a libretto into the rarely off-stage producer of the show is imaginative and practical. And it's a stroke of near genius to have the prompter on stage as his alter ego wagging an exasperated finger when the principal characters stray from the score. Franz Welser-Möst keeps this wonderful score fizzing along and there's fine playing from the strings and the principal horn and oboe.” BBC Music Magazine, May 2005 *** | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Director Werner Herzog and conductor Riccardo Muti combine with the finest of casts to lavish Rossini’s rarely-performed Neapolitan masterpiece, set in feudal sixteenth century Scotland, with the genius it deserves.

“The slickness of the scene changes, the direction of Werner Herzog, together with Rossini’s music, the solo and choral singing and Muti’s vibrant conducting keep the watcher and listener interested. As Elena, June Anderson keeps a pure vocal line with secure legato, plenty of tonal colour and secure coloratura.” MusicWeb International | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
