lIlicit Iove, suspicion, deception and supernaturaI portents of doom lead to a shocking drama at a masked baII in 1790s Sweden. The incomparable Placido Domingo stars as the dashing King Gustavus llI, whose reforms have inspired taIk of assassination among the conservative nobiIity. Katia RicciarelIi is Gustavus's beloved AmeIia, married to his cIosest friend, Anckarstrom, sung by Piero Cappuccilli. Claudio Abbado conducts the distinguished cast, supported by the Orchestra of the Royal Opera house and Royal Opera Chorus, in Otto Schenk's classic production of this Verdi favorite for The RoyaI Opera. This recording, with EngIish subtitles, is preserved in its original Standard Definition and 4:3 picture format. |
