Vesselina Kasarova - Rossini Arias and Duets
Once again, Bulgarian mezzo-soprano Vesselina Kasarova proves that one can forget even the fabulous Cecilia Bartoli. With a voice at least twice that of Bartoli's, with the same agility in fast music, and capable of a similar number of shadings from ppp to fff (Bartoli can go from ppppp to f), Kasarova here tackles some of the same repertory as her Italian counterpart. We discover that her Cenerentola is much more easily wounded and far gentler, and maybe even more appealing than Bartoli's. But forget comparisons and just listen to Kasarova's infectious, seductive scene from L'Italiana and the amazing, breakneck finale to La Donna del Lago. Marvel at her manly singing in Arsace's big scene from Semiramide (totally different from Horne's and no less riveting), and bask in the charm of her Armida. Enjoy a scene from the almost unknown Bianca e Falliero. And just to surprise yourself, listen to Kasarova in a duet from Rossini's Otello and be knocked out by her foray up to a high D natural. Kasarova is joined in this and a couple of other scenes by sweet-voiced tenor Juan Diego Florez. Arthur Fagen conducts throughout as if this were Kasarova's show--which it most certainly is.
