Description:

Of the many operas that have been composed, only a handful have remained popular to this day. Not all of them, even those by great composers, were very successful. This box contains six such works buried in history. Some, like Gazzaniga's and Leoncavallo's operas, have been overshadowed by other big hits based on the same subject matter. Like Fyviv's work, it remains popular in the composer's home country, but is not known internationally. Some of these works have been buried in the shadows due to the failure of their premieres, but when you listen to them again, you will realize how fascinating they are. The singers and conductors who appear in each work are also noteworthy. From female singers such as Lucia Popp and Pamela Coburn to male singers such as Francisco Araiza and Franco Bonisolli, an astonishing array of great singers are featured. You will also hear performances by top-notch opera conductors such as Gardelli and Albrecht. *The booklet differs from that of the first release and does not include lyrics. Naxos Japan
