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.
