专辑介绍

It's a measure of Natalie Dessay's entirely appropriate priorities -- of musical content over her vanity -- that she looks so ghastly on the cover of her album of scenes and arias from Italian operas. She's dressed as the mad Lucia -- who certainly shouldn't be looking her best, but &as if she has risen from the grave& -- and the image is emblematic of her commitment to dramatic verisimilitude in the role. The same self-effacing approach is evident in all her portrayals, of Violetta, Elvira, Maria Stuarda, Gilda, and Bellini's Giuletta, in which she doesn't call attention to herself with extreme or idiosyncratic performances, but seems to lose herself in the characters. Dessay's performances aren't flashy, and the primary focus is on the musical and dramatic demands of the roles. Dessay frequently includes excerpts from scenes, which places the arias nicely in their dramatic context. Dessay's voice is light, and while she may not have the vocal heft of many of the singers who take on these roles, the delicacy and youthfulness of her voice are often ideally suited to the characters' tenuous emotional conditions, particularly Lucia, Elvira, and Giulietta. She has plenty of substance to easily soar over the orchestra, though, and her coloratura is absolutely secure. The overall impression is that she has nothing to prove, she's simply using her superb instrument to deliver what the composer asked for, with assurance, intelligence, and passion. Evelino Pidò leads Concerto Köln and Europäischer Kammerchor in performances that match Dessay's intensity.
