Once regarded as Verdi's lost opera because of early censorship and controversy, Stiffelio has now established its rightful place in Verdi's canon. In this 1993 recording from the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, José Carreras, as the Protestant minister whose faith is shattered when he discovers his wife's adulterous liaison with a family friend, leads a fine cast that includes Catherine Malfitano, Gregory Yurisich, Gwynne Howell and Robin Leggate under the baton of Edward Downes. Recorded live at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, London on 2nd & 6th February 1993.

“Elijah Moshinsky's handsome Stiffelio was one of Covent Garden's greatest triumphs under a previous regime. José Carreras and Catherine Malfitano lead a fine cast.” BBC Music Magazine, March 2009 **** “Monday's performance was beyond any but nit-picking criticism. Downes's conducting confirmed him as one of the (if not the) world's leading Verdians - grandeur, sweep, energy, allied to extraordinary delicacy. Elijah Moshinsky's production spared us nothing in rawness and immediacy, and indeed, dramatic truth… This Stiffelio is a great event: move mountains to see it.” The Times “In 2007 Stiffelio was reported sinking under the weight of a lavish production at the Metropolitan.
At Covent Garden, the production team, led by Elijah Moshinsky, had much more the right idea and, in one decision of casting, the visual element is transformed. The opera has only one female among the principals, and, rather as in Otello, the action turns on her largely passive character. She is Lina, wife of the minister of a Protestant community where the way of life is simple and biblical law is strictly upheld.
At the Met she is played by Sharon Sweet whose ample form and golden curls suggest (however unjustly) an ungodly allowance of worldly pleasure.
In her husband's absence she has 'fallen', and Catherine Malfitano (the Lina at Covent Garden) is attractive enough to make that seem plausible while remaining in figure and demeanour one of the devout, and a 'pure' woman at heart.
The other major difference in production is one of scale. At the Metropolitan everything has gone up in the world. The minister's house is palatial, the modest gathering to celebrate his return a full-scale ambassador's dinner party.
Lina's father is decked out in full military grandeur, while at Covent Garden he is clad in simple civilian dignity. Covent Garden's graveyard is a matter of plain stones and crosses; the Met's sports elaborate and (surely) abhorred images.
In every respect the London production is better, with unostentatious care taken over furnishings and each member of the chorus provided with an identity.
The Stiffelio is Carreras in what was probably the finest achievement among roles following his serious illness. Gregory Yurisich sings magnificently as the father. Gwynne Howell is a pillar of sonorous authority, and Robin Leggate, having played Cassio so often, fits in perfectly as his guilty counterpart. Edward Downes conducts with a sure and thoughtful touch.” Gramophone Classical Music Guide, 2010 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

“Mortally wounded by the censors, Verdi's 1850 opera disappeared for more than a century. This Met staging is impressively sung, especially by Domingo in the title role.” BBC Music Magazine, Proms 2007 **** “…the production… was mounted specifically for Domingo who enjoyed in it one of the most impressive triumphs of his career, happily preserved now in sight as well as sound.” Gramophone Magazine, September 2007 | | | Usually despatched in 8 - 10 working days. |

Mario Malagnini (Stiffelio), Dimitra Theodossiou (Lina), Marco Vratogna (Stankar), Giorgio Casciarri (Raffaele), Enzo Capuano (Jorg), Bernadette Lucarini (Dorotea), Enrico Cossutta (Federico) Orchestra e Coro del Teatro Lirico Giuseppe Verdi di Trieste, Nicola Luisotti Stiffelio, which debuted at the Teatro Grande in Trieste on 16th November 1850, was, unquestionably, one of Verdi’s greatest flops. This opera, however, is probably as worthy, musically, as many others which acquired greater fame. The present production, staged by the Teatro Verdi of Trieste in the 150th anniversary of Stiffelio’s first performance, was recorded live by Dynamic and will give the lovers of Verdi’s music an opportunity to savour this opera’s many beautiful pages. The excellent vocal cast features the tenor Mario Malagnini in the title role and the Greek soprano Dimitra Theodossiou - a rising star in the operatic firmament - as the female protagonist Lina. | | | (also available to download from $21.00) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
