5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant la serva padrona with a fine coupling, June 13, 2000

By 

EAK (Knoxville, TN) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pergolesi: Livietta e Tracollo; La Serva Padrona (Audio CD)

Pergolesi lived for only 26 years (1710-1736) but in his short life he inherited us three unmissable works: The stabat mater, the opera buffa "Lo frate 'nnamorato" (excellent performance of Muti and Teatro alla Scala on EMI) and the intermezzo "La serva padrona". This outstanding intermezzo had a great influence on the development of French opera-comique later. The performance in this CD is good. While Gilbert Bezzina's better performance on disques Pierre Verany is hard to find now, this CD has the advantage of coupling a very good performance of Livietta e Tracollo (from 1734), another intermezzo which although is not as brilliant as the former (1733) La serva padrona, still has some good music.
