Description: PRODUCT DESCRIPTION


Vincenzo Bellini’s first great operatic success I Capuleti e i Montecchi is based on an Italian version of Romeo and Juliet in which the feuding clans seek reconciliation through the wedding of Giulietta and Tebaldo. Giulietta’s lover, Romeo, begs her to elope with him, but fate has other plans for the couple. Topped with the ‘agile coloratura runs and lyrical grace’ (The New York Times) of soprano Jessica Pratt, this acclaimed production takes place in the historical and beautifully atmospheric Teatro La Fenice, the same venue in which I Capuleti e i Montecchi had its triumphant premiere in 1830.

Review Meir Wellber’s conducting makes more of the score than most… Jessica Pratt looks and sound gorgeous… Sonia Ganassi holds the stage as Romeo… They blend harmoniously. 4* - OperaNow Magazine: July 2022

REVIEW


Ruben Amoretti makes for fierce Capellop and Luca Dall’Amico’s solid bass lends gravitas to Lorenzo. Omer Meir Wellber conducts a sympathetic account of the score, well played by La Fenice’s orchestra. - Gramophone Magazine: August 2022
