Featured review
Truly amazing Norma
Norma is not one of my favorite operas,but it has a touching.story and a great title role. This 1974 Orange Norma is truly magnificent. Montserrat Caballé,one of the best sopranos in the world ,makes truly the best out of the hard title role of Norma. Her spinto soprano truly fits the role of dignified,proud and yet vulnerable Druid priestess. Her duets woth Josephine Veasey are very touching .Veasey also brings her best to the role of Adalgisa. Jon Vickers is a tenor with a very dark and recognizable timbre ,so he made Wagner and Verdi repertoire his own(the role of Othello especially). His Polione is so nicely sung(Polione very often sounds strained and shouted),and truly virile .One of the more energetic performances of Polione. Overall,truly amazing Norma .9/10.
