5.0 out of 5 stars Sensational Butterfly with Bergonzi and Tebaldi
Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2015
Verified Purchase
I've listened to many recordings of Butterfly, including Pav, Domingo, Tucker, and others. This is the absolute best of them all. Carlo Bergonzi is at his best in this recording. His voice is incredibly beautiful and his emotion and passion are unparallelled. Tebaldi is also great, although she has such a powerful voice that it sometimes becomes harsh in this recording (perhaps they mixed her in at too high a level?). The supporting cast is likewise terrific. If you had to get one recording of Butterfly, this is the one.

4.0 out of 5 stars A nice rendition of a popular opera
Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2008
This recording is well-balanced and the singers are all competent and strong. I can't say that I find it particularly exciting, but it's not one of my favorite operas either, even though I'm quite a Puccini fan. Since the recording is ADD, you won't have quite the feeling of being there that a good DDD recording will provide. But I think it's worth the money to add it to your collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pinkerton : le "mystère Carlo Bergonzi".
Reviewed in France on September 30, 2013
Verified Purchase
Pas taillable dans la glaise glauque où l'on sculpte un personnage cynique et veule avant qu'il ne se liquéfie dans un tardif, vain et donc médiocre remords, Carlo Bergonzi fut pourtant un grandiose Pinkerton dans cette œuvre qui place le génie de son créateur au service de l'une des histoires les plus cruelles et les plus abjectes que compte l'histoire de l'art lyrique.
C'est ce que l'on pourrait appeler le "mystère Carlo Bergonzi".
Bien consciente de ce que je me répète, je l'assume cependant car le mystère reste confondant.
Carlo Bergonzi chante.
Il chante et "le tour est joué".
Il chante, point.
Il dit, il phrase, il "énonce" : les sortilèges de sa voix magnifiée par une discipline absolue opèrent comme par magie, la question de l'adéquation n'est plus posée.
De grands artistes lyriques sacrifient aujourd'hui ou sacrifièrent hier la perfection du son voire la longévité de leur voix à leur art, dans une recherche approfondie et fouillée mais sacrificielle de l'intensité dramatique et de la véracité psychologique de leurs rôles, quitte à se flétrir et se meurtrir.
À l'inverse, Carlo Bergonzi avance droit devant, il fend l'air de notre espace sonore et émotionnel avec l'épée de ses dons vocaux naturels et sa vocation de seigneur féal, toute obéissance due à la loi de l'art du chant et à la suprématie du style.
En 1966, il gravera un enregistrement anthologique de Madame Butterfly sous la direction de Sir John Barbirolli, avec l'immense Renata Scotto dans le rôle titre, Rolando Paneraï en Sharpless et Anna di Stasio en Suzuki.
Ici, nous sommes en 1958.
Sous la baguette magistrale, c'est le mot, de Tullio Serafin à la tête de l'orchestre et des chœurs de l'académie de Sainte-Cécile de Rome, Carlo Bergonzi est entouré par la Madame Butterfly de Renata Tebaldi, dépourvue des dons d'actrice dont elle ne fut jamais pourvue (elle sanglote parfois à contretemps et en tout cas inutilement) mais forte de cette voix si pure, si "idéale", si impressionnante, même pour qui ne la révère pas, par l'impeccable Sharpless d'Enzo Sordello et par la luxueuse Suzuki de Fiorenza Cossotto.
Bien que Pinkerton soit un personnage secondaire dans ce chef d'œuvre de Giacomo Puccini, à tous égards secondaire et cependant causal, c'est le prodigieux Pinkerton de Carlo Bergonzi qui me donne envie d'en parler.
Il n'est que de l'écouter dans le fameux duo nuptial du premier acte, où la passion torride de l'amour neuf le dispute à la honte inassumée d'un viol masqué, sur fond d'une musique splendide mais pas dupe, pour comprendre comment Carlo Bergonzi se joue de la mocheté de son personnage.
Et de nous par la même occasion se joue-t-il : oui, comment le juger et le mépriser alors qu'il nous subjugue ?!
Le voilà bel et bien, le "mystère Carlo Bergonzi".
Un magnifique mystère.

4.0 out of 5 stars La bonne version pour Tebaldi
Reviewed in France on October 11, 2017
Verified Purchase
J’écoutais récemment la version Erede de 1954, avec Tebaldi et Del Monaco, et je concluais que je préférais celle-ci, de 1958, pour les partenaires et le chef. Une écoute, ce jour, me le confirme. Bergonzi a l’air d’avoir du remord, Sordello était un excellent baryton, qui n’a pas assez enregistré, Cossoto, alors jeune, est une des meilleures Suzuki, tous enregistrements confondus, et Tebaldi, a toujours sa voix et son art du chant « nettement au-dessus du lot ». Serafin dirige à son tour l’orchestre de l’académie de musique Santa Cecilia, avec tout autant de finesse qu’Erede, et un peu plus d’entrain.
Pas de commentaire ni de livret, mais un résumé en anglais, français, allemand, italien. Enregistrement studio, avec la stéréo Decca.
