4.0 out of 5 stars Sutherland proves she can still trill with the best, 31 Dec 2001
By L. J. Heighton (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This was the second recording of Sonnambula made by Dame Joan Sutherland (La Stupenda). Despite being late in her career she puts in an astounding performance as only she can with the famous trill, arpeggio work and high notes still stunningly intact. She hardly sounds like the young girl she is portraying (she was about 60 when the recording was made), and for pure beauty and ease of sound I would refer the listener to her earlier recording, but there is more drama and characterisation here than previously and the diction is much improved. As always she dominates the ensembles with the sheer size of the voice. She proved she could still run rings around just about everyone else in the world with this repertoire. Pavarotti as Elvino is also impressive with a barrage of high-C's and achieves real pathos in his second act aria, but elsewhere has a tendency to over-sing: Every bit the latin lover but the opera is set in Switzerland! Nicolai Ghiaurov is dignified as the Count and his voice is beautiful - a true gentleman. In the support cast Isobel Buchannan stands out as Lisa - the bitter love-rival. Everything she sings is magical and I would buy this set for her alone. She has agility and high notes to rival Sutherland and plays the coquette with aplomb. An exciting find. Della Jones is also excellent in the small part of Teresa. The chorus and orchestra are well controlled under Richard Bonynge (Sutherland's husband) who is an expert in this area and this all adds up to a really enjoyable performance. The story is light-weight but who cares when the music is this good.
