Before you begin, a little warning: the links at the Rossini Otello with Von Bothmer and Zapata are back published, so if you are interested in recording you can find it in the previous post.
Well, after this brief note, let's mess. There are works that know stoically resist the passage of time. And not only resist with dignity, but also do it with pride. The truth is that not many titles can say that both referential recordings can be found fifty years ago today. Our work today is a player than can show it off. I am referring to L'Elisir d'amore , one of the most famous opera buffa entire operatic repertoire out of the pen of the great composer was Bergamo Gaetano Donizetti.
And is that "L'Elisir" was the only on his behalf from the moment of its release. That May 12, 1832, the Teatro della Cannobiana Milan saw a premiere tremendous. Donizetti was able to enjoy a great time at the huge cheers directed at him after the final act. As icing on the cake, the critical task to spread in the press the tremendous success of this new title. And from there, the immortality of an opera fated not to leave the stage. Something had to see the magnificent libretto Felice Romani signed based on an earlier one entitled "Le Philtre", by Eugene Scribe.
Although this is a very famous title, it will be worth remembering su argumento, que os ofrezco con la cortesía de Intermezzo , web del ya mencionado en el blog Rafael Torregrosa.
Primer acto. La rica y bella Adina se mofa de los tímidos intentos de Nemorino, que está enamorado de ella, y prefiere leer en voz alta la historia de Tristán e Isolda. Los aldeanos que la escuchan desearían poseer un elixir de amor como el de Tristán. Belcore, un sargento que está al frente de un destacamento, entra en escena y requiebra a Adina, con la desesperación de Nemorino.
Una trompeta entre bastidores anuncia la llegada de un carro dorado; sobre él viene el Doctor Dulcamara, un charlatán que proclama elocuentemente sus mercancía: "Udit, or rustici." The locals are impressed. When Nemorino asks for the "elixir that won the Queen Isolde", Dulcamara claims that he has and gives him a bottle that contains nothing but claret, while confessing that he never saw anyone so simple.
Nemorino drinks the wine from the bottle and sings happy thinking that soon conquer the love of Adina with that magic potion that is supposed to make its effect last twenty four hours. Absorbed in this case does Adina, who enters the scene, which, of course, misses the girl, who begins to take an interest in Nemorino.
Belcore is ordered to leave with his detachment, and asks that Adina marry him that same day, a request that she appears to give access Nemorino jealous. It is filled with despair, thinking that the elixir will not effect until the next day and it will be too late. Then begs Adina to delay the wedding a day, but she refuses and, while the whole town thinks happily in the celebration, Nemorino feel that their hopes have vanished. And ends the first act.
begins the second act. Adina's farm everything is ready for the wedding. After a lively choir, presents the last song Dulcamara arrive in Venice, an barcarola that is a beautiful young woman without fortune who rejects the claims of a old senator. Dulcamara and Adina is sung, amid the applause of those present: "Io are ricco, e tu sei bella". Guests depart
to witness the signing of the marriage contract, leaving Dulcamara, who is finishing a meal. Sign Nemorino and Dulcamara gives you another bottle of elixir "that will make its effect immediately. Meanwhile, Adina has postponed the signing of the contract. Nemorino, to get the money to pay the new bottle, he enlisted in the regiment of Belcore, who has come again, and both sing a duet, "Venti scudi."
Again in the town square. Giannetta tells the villagers that Nemorino's uncle has died, leaving him heir to a fortune, Nemorino but still does not know anything about it. Now girls are VIP to Nemorino, and he attributes to the effects of the "elixir." Adina, meanwhile, is thrilled to learn that Nemorino has enlisted because of him, while he, delighted with their new situation, leaving with the girls. Dulcamara Adina confesses that Nemorino has sold an elixir of love, but she says, and agrees Dulcamara, elixir she has a more powerful: its beauty.
Sale Nemorino scene again, he has noticed a marked change in attitude toward him Adina, and his love comes rushing: "Una furtiva lacrima. Adina Back, which has rescued Nemorino's commitment to the military, gives states the document and is also in love with him.
Belcore, who returns with soldiers, meets with the new situation, but soon comforted thinking that the world is full of young women. Dulcamara, meanwhile, does a big business with the elixir, which has brought not only love but also money. The locals are happy to show their enthusiastic appreciation Dulcamara, who leaves in his golden chariot, which concludes the opera.
And after the explanation of rigor, let the record that this time I offer. It is the function held at the Teatro de Jerez Villamarta April 29, 2004 by a cast that youth and experience combine to give a very enjoyable representation:

Let the sharing tab:
Adina: Mariola Cantarero
Nemorino: Ismael Jordi
Belcore: Marco Moncloa
Dulcamara: Carlos Chausson
Giannetta: Leticia Rodriguez
Malaga Philharmonic Orchestra Coro del Teatro
Villamarta Jerez · Francesc Bonnin
The great winner of the representation Mariola Cantarero was , Adina extraordinary that makes respectable comes down after concluding aria. Very good example of how to sing a role like the one at hand. Ismael Jordi Nemorino does the same: I was lucky to see him live in Manchester a few functions and I can assure that your vocal performance goes hand in hand with his dramatic performance. His "Una furtiva lagrima" is really delicious. Not everything was to be encouraged to Dulcamara Carlos Chausson, but a vocal condition did not surrender to 100%. Undervalued in Spain, undoubtedly deserves further commitments Chausson larger theaters. Well Marco Moncloa as Belcore and well Leticia Rodriguez in homely role of Giannetta. Right orchestra and chorus by Francesc Bonnin .
And finally, here I leave the links. This is a recording made in the theater itself, although its sound is good. Va edited and fragmented into tracks, as has become customary:

to enjoy it.
