About

This 1973 Aida stars two of the most celebrated singers of their time, tenor Carlo Bergonzi and Fiorenza Cossotto, both in prime form here. In true Italian tradition their voices are as effective in the lyrical passages, calling for velvety beauty of tone, as in the fiery dramatic sections of the opera.

The title role is sung by Orianna Santunione, a dramatic soprano of remarkable power, evenness, and intensity. The other principal singers in this performance are Gianpiero Mastromei, a commanding Amonasro, and Ivo Vinco, an imposing and dignified Ramfis.

The forces of the NHK Symphony Orchestra are under the direction of conductor Oliviero De Fabritiis, who backs up the singers with an emotionally charged account of the masterful score.

Embedded Japanese subtitles with subtitles in English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish.
 
1973, 160 minutes, Colour, Mono, All regions.
