Ana María Martínez, Andrea Bocelli, Orquestra de la Comunitat Valenciana, Coro de la Generalitat Valenciana, Plácido Domingo – Puccini: Manon Lescaut – Dramma lirico in quattro atti (2014)
FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/96 kHz | Time – 01:58:26 minutes | 2,18 GB | Genre: Classical

Puccini’s Manon Lescaut with Ana María Martínez, Orquestra de la Comunitat Valenciana, Coro de la Generalitat Valenciana and conductor Plácido Domingo is the dark story of love, betrayal, jealousy and death. Manon calls for dramatic, forceful performances and gets the full treatment here in this new studio recording.
The story of the doomed heroine Manon Lescaut has inspired more than one composer, but is perhaps most passionately portrayed in Puccini’s opera, written just ten years after Massenet’s Manon. A grim story of love, betrayal, jealousy and death, it calls for dramatic, forceful performance, and gets the full treatment here in this new studio recording starring Andrea Bocelli.
Now Bocelli brings the full weight of his emotionally charged personality to the tragic role of Puccini’s Des Grieux.

Giuseppe Verdi is one of the most tuneful, beloved composers of vocal music Italy has produced. Verdi wrote REQUIEM in honor of Alessandro Manzoni, an Italian poet and novelist he greatly admired. Acclaimed tenor Andrea Bocelli and soprano Renee Fleming, along with conductor Valery Gergiev and the Kirov Orchestra, perform a moving rendition of this heartfelt work, perfectly capturing the depth of emotion and challenging musical requirements of this work. Any classical-music lover will appreciate this performance. (more…)

Andrea Bocelli – Verdi: Arias
Artist: Andrea Bocelli | Orchestra: Israel Philharmonic Orchestra | Conductor: Zubin Mehta | Composer: Giuseppe Verdi | Album: Verdi: Arias | Style: Opera | Year: 2003 | Quality: DVD-Audio (MPL 5.1 48kHz/20Bit, MPL 2.0 48kHz/20Bit, Dolby AC3 5.1) | Bitrate: lossless | Tracks: 15 | Size: 3.86 Gb | Recovery: 5% | Covers: in archive | Release: Decca | Philips (464 600-2), 2003 | Note: Watermarked
Following the spiritually flavored Sacred Arias, Andrea Bocelli presents an album of the music of Giuseppe Verdi, covering arias from several operas, leaning heavily on Il Trovatore, La Triviata, and Rigoletto. Supported by the Israel Philharmonic under the direction of Zubin Mehta, Bocelli reprises his role as the crossover-friendly opera tenor, offering his interpretations with capability and grace and warmly embracing the songs with his familiar voice. Opera purists may find Verdi a little off-putting; for example, the album opener, “Di Quella Pira” from Il Trovatore (which serves as the rousing finale to the opera’s third act), sounds out of place as the opening track, and Mehta’s conducting is adequate but lacks passion. However, the album is not without its charms, and the ballads represented here (“La Donna e Mobile” and “Possente Amor” in particular) are wonderfully suited to his notoriously light tenor. Fans of Bocelli’s previous albums should be happy with Verdi, and will hopefully be awakened to the works of one of opera’s great composers. (more…)
