Puccini: Turandot[2 CD]
2 CDs
A new complete opera for the Andrea Bocelli's army of ardent fans: complete with the biggest tenor aria of all time: Nessun Dorma.
In this new and much-anticipated complete opera recording from superstar Andrea Bocelli, the tenor assembles a fine cast to explore Puccini's last opera.
Taking the lead role of Calaf the unknown prince - Andrea's powerful tenor tells a compelling story of riddles answered, triumph secured, honor displayed, and love deeply felt.
The key role of the ice-cold riddler Princess, Turandot, is sung by American soprano, Jennifer Wilson fast becoming one of today's major dramatic sopranos.
Zubin Mehta has made something of a speciality of this first-class Puccini opera from his classic Decca recording (1972) onwards, bringing here an intensely dramatic reading of the score with an arresting orchestral performance from the Orquestra de la Comunitat Valenciana.
Andrea Bocelli as Calaf - gives a glorious rendition of the spell-binding Nessun Dorma (None shall sleep), perhaps the best-known and most-loved tenor aria in all opera of our time.
