Riccardo MutiAbout
The entire ensemble, featuring the notable portrayal of Santuzza by mezzo-soprano Anita Rachvelishvili, captures all the emotion and nuance of Mascagni’s opera as it hurtles toward its inevitable catastrophe – the celebrated Intermezzo offering the only moment of respite.
Cavalleria rusticana marks the first CSO Resound release to be available in Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos format.
In the early part of its history, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra was in the pit for an astonishing number of operas, including nearly 50 performances of Cavalleria rusticana. The orchestra’s founding music director, Theodore Thomas, conducted the Intermezzo on the second programme the orchestra ever played on 19 October 1891. Riccardo Muti, world-renowned for his superlative interpretations of Italian operas, reunites the orchestral prowess of the CSO with the work – which it had not performed in its entirety since 1931 – in this definitive 21st-century performance certain to stand the test of time.
