 Rating:  - The production can make or break an opera...While this is a delightful opera, I felt that the production was lacking in many ways. For one thing, Cecilia Bartoli does not look at all as Cinderella should. Mostly because she is obviously overweight, it's hard to see why the prince is SO captivated by her appearance. The prince himself did not look half as handsome (or young) as Prince Charming should, although I could forgive these small faults if those were my only objections to this recording. I realize that Raul Giminez and Cecilia Bartoli ... Read More Rating:  - beautiful production, magnificent performancesI am a great fan of Cecilia Bartoli, and have been so, since this, her role as the title character, in Rossini's La Cenerentola. In my opinion, Bartoli is one of the most beautiful, dynamic and brilliant mezzo sopranos of our time. She has such a rich and beautiful tone, to her phrasing, as well as her general delivery of the songs in her repertoire. This, the Houston Opera House production, is about as far away from Disney's Cinderella as you can get. So, before you consider seeing ...

En lo vocal, todos rinden a un nivel estupendo. Comenzando por una CECILIA BARTOLI excelente, tanto en lo escénico como en lo vocal: su pirotécnica coloratura es de impresión y su voz es bellísima. Cantar el papel mejor que ella en la actualidad es muy dificil. Junto a la joven Bartoli tenemos al veterano ENZO DARA, un Don ...

Get Disney's take out of your head and everything starts making sense. This is Bartoli's signature role (note the book "Cinderella & Company") and she enjoys her feisty take on the girl. An excellent light entertainment for anyone who enjoys opera or the musical theater. Rating:  - Great singing with a little twitching thrown inI love this video for the singing. As a matter of fact, I would recommend it over Bartoli's Decca cd recording because the best principal singers are the same, except in this video, you get Raul Giminez as the Prince, instead of William Matteuzzi on the cd, and although Giminez' voice is a bit lighter, it's a prettier voice, and his fioratura is much more smooth and lovely. La Cenerentola is Bartoli at her finest vocally - it suits her sound and vocal style perfectly, but the acting is another matter. ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
