推荐理由
查看 Presto这是 Richard Hickox 指挥的 Walton 歌剧《特洛伊罗斯与克瑞西达》权威录音，被广泛认为是该作品的最佳版本。
作为 Walton 的首部歌剧，该剧基于乔叟的经典爱情故事，作曲家希望创作一部浪漫的、类似普契尼风格的作品，其配乐丰富且旋律令人难忘。本录音遵循了 Walton 在 1976 年复排时删减约三十分钟音乐后的精简版本，同时将克瑞西达声部从为 Janet Baker 调整的女中音恢复为原始的女高音。指挥 Hickox 的诠释被评价为既富有表现力又理解 Walton 的激情，全体演员表现出色。
简介
原始简介
Released as a part of the Richard Hickox Legacy series, this essential recording of Walton’s Troilus and Cressida is widely recognised as the finest available. Edward Greenfield wrote in Gramophone that ‘even among Chandos’ many bold achievements over the years, this magnificent set of Troilus and Cressida stands out... [Hickox’s] expressive warmth is matched by his understanding of Walton’s fiery side, with magnificent performances form the entire cast’. Troilus and Cressida, William Walton’s first opera was commissioned by the BBC in 1947 although only after seven years, in 1954, did the premiere take place, in Covent Garden. For a revival in 1976, Walton removed about thirty minutes of music and adapted the soprano part of Cressida to bring it within the range of the mezzo-soprano Dame Janet Baker. The version recorded here follows Walton’s more concise score whilst returning the part of Cressida to its original soprano register. Based on Chaucer’s classic love-tale Troilus and Criseyde, the opera represents Walton’s desire to engage with traditional operatic themes. Walton wanted to write a romantic, ‘Pucciniesque’ opera and the rich scoring and many memorable melodies certainly invite comparison. Walton dedicated Troilus and Cressida to his wife, Lady Susana Walton, who contributes a personal note in the booklet.
