Gounod Faust Alagna, Mula, Pape, Lapointe, Cond Plasson Act III

Marguerite's garden The lovesick boy Siébel leaves a bouquet for Marguerite (Faites-lui mes aveux). Faust sends Méphistophélès in search of a gift for Marguerite and sings a cavatina (Salut, demeure chaste et pure) idealizing Marguerite as a pure child of nature. Méphistophélès brings in a decorated box containing exquisite jewelry and a hand mirror and leaves it on Marguerite's doorstep, next to Siébel's flowers. Marguerite enters, pondering her encounter with Faust at the city gates, and sings a melancholy ballad about the King of Thulé (Il était un roi de Thulé). Marthe, Marguerite's neighbour, notices the jewellery and says it must be from an admirer. Marguerite tries on the jewels and is captivated by how they enhance her beauty, as she sings in the famous aria, the Jewel Song (Ah! je ris de me voir si belle en ce miroir). Méphistophélès and Faust join the women in the garden and romance them. Marguerite allows Faust to kiss her (Laisse-moi, laisse-moi contempler ton visage), but then asks him to go away. She sings at her window for his quick return, and Faust, listening, returns to her. Under the watchful eye and malevolent laughter of Méphistophélès, it is clear that Faust's seduction of Marguerite will be successful.

Roberto Alagna : scene and Lacrymosa from "Don Carlos"

This is a very rare part of Verdi's "Don Carlos". This opera is the ORIGINAL french version of the future "Don Carlo". The music is not exactly the same between the 2 operas. Tenor voice needed is not exactly the same (due to French specificities) And scenes have disappeared in the italian version. In the 1996 Chatelet's production, the scene after Posa's death with the beautiful Lacrymosa was reintroduced. And it is soooo moving. i remember having cried with my mom in the theatre (all the more so as this part was totally new to us !). Verdi used the orchestral music (rearranged) for his requiem's lacrymosa... Roberto Alagna is really moving,with Jose Van Dam. And I will repeat myself : what a beautiful French he sings ! Conductor : Antonio Pappano / Stage director : Luc Bondy

Pasión Album - Roberto Alagna (Making Of)

Making Of album "Pasión" Deutsche Grammophon), After selling more than 500 000 copies of his tribute to Luis Mariano and the album "Sicilien", Roberto Alagna is back, this time with all the heat and colour of Latin America in his new album, "PASIÓN"! Available from October 31st... Après avoir vendu plus de 500 000 exemplaires de son album en hommage à Luis Mariano puis de « Sicilien », Roberto Alagna revient avec un nouvel album aux couleurs chaudes de l'Amérique latine, « PASIÓN » ! On y retrouve de grands classiques tels que « Besame mucho », « Quizás, Quizás, Quizás» ou « Cielito Lindo » ; Une sublime reprise de « Piensa en mi », immortalisée par Luz Casal dans la bande originale de « Talons Aiguilles » ; Mais aussi un très beau duo sur « Historia de un amor », (monument de la musique sud-américaine) avec la chanteuse mexicaine Lila Downs, connue pour son interprétation de la bande originale de « Frida » en 2002. Roberto nous propose une extraordinaire promenade dans le boléro cubain, la ranchera mexicaine et le tango argentin et pas question de dénaturer ces chansons auxquelles il est très attaché car « ces chansons ont toujours fait partie de ma vie ». En préservant l'authenticité de ces morceaux, notamment grâce à des arrangements qualifiés d'« ethniques » par Yvan Cassar (à la direction musicale), mais sans hésiter à secouer des standards comme « La Cumparsita », Roberto Alagna explore un nouveau répertoire avec lequel il a une proximité instinctive. « Après tout <b>...</b>

Robert Alagna - Rigoletto - act II cabaletta - 1994

Robert Alagna - Rigoletto - act II cabaletta - 1994 To High D or not to high D, that is the question? This cabaletta is often cut from live performance, and it is shame. I find it very pleasing, especially when it is performed by the greatest tenors.
