Opera Bubbles

What’s new, guys?))) I wanna add an information component to my blog…at least I’ll try:). I always track the latest releases of different artists. And I think, writing this type of posts, I can help other operafans to get to know about them. So I’d like to inform you about upcoming CDs, DVDs of the most interesting singers (in my opinion) every season of the year. Today it's Summer Edition!!! CD RELEASES: June 2 – Verdi «Giovanna d'Arco» by Deutsche Grammophon Anna Netrebko · Plácido Domingo Francesco Meli · Johannes Dunz Roberto Tagliavini Philharmonia Chor Wien Münchner Rundfunkorchester Paolo Carignani

Finalmente (it.)!!! I’ve sat and dedicated one of my evenings thinking about Verdi’s music again! Time is so limited for me lately…but I stick to my plan and intention to share my thoughts and emotions about this great composer with you!!! As I’ve said in the previous post this part will be not only about CDs! In this bubble I would like to tell you about two amazing Verdian singers whom I adore very much and hope you do too:). I would even call it «The Radvanovsky-Hvorostovsky Bubble» . If you don’t know I mean Dmitri Hvorostovsky , a Russian baritone, and Sondra Radvanovsky , an American (partly Canadian) soprano.

Recently (exactly yesterday) I listened to Anna Netrebko’s Verdi Album. I was waiting for it with huge anticipation. (Photo: Kristian Schuller/Deutsche Grammophon) Anna is one of my favourite singers and I always try to keep in touch with all things that happen to her. So…I guess that’s a good start for my first bubble J making a little review. In general I have to say (if u don’t know much about Anna) Verdi album is a new page of her career cause she is now moving to a new more dramatic repertoire as her voice has changed for recent years. The whole album represents extracts from Verdi’s «Macbeth», «Giovanna d'Arco», «I vespri siciliani», «Don Carlo», «Il Trovatore».
