How deep is your love
As one can see from the chronology published earlier this year, the American Opera Society, in addition to reviving a number of now familiar operas, introduced many singers who became important local figures; however, there were shooting-star exceptions like today’s Trove Thursday offering of d’Albert’s Tiefland featuring Angeles Gulin and Ion Buzea.

[…] me a little bit depressing and hard to understand. I am unsure whether even today the lieder are to my taste. Being songs based on a poetic text, I cannot resonate with the melodic line, which is equally shared by the piano and voice. But I like opera music. I began to enjoy opera performances by Maria Callas , Nicolae Herlea , Arta Florescu , Elena Cernei , Pompeiu Hărăşteanu , Ion Dacian , Ion Buzea , Dorin Teodorescu , Ludovic Spiess , and many others.

Something I like. The everlasting La Traviata
Some evenings I get nostalgic and surf the internet listening to some pieces that are very, very close to my heart. La Traviata is one of my guilty pleasures. I have listened to tens of versions across the years. But the magic happened only once. It was 2010. It was at the Royal Opera House. That was my Traviata, all mine. Among some of the most remarkable renditions of this opera is this one, a 1968 audio recording of a performance in Bucharest. Virginia Zeani is Violetta, Ion Buzea is Alfredo and Nicolae Herlea is Germont (starting at 30', my all time favorite, the second act). Such a beauty, everything seems so easy, natural, human, touching... And a rare video recording of Sempre libera, also in Bucharest but three years before, in 1965. Enjoy and have a great Sunday!
