CLASSICAL AUDIO
· Tenor Lawrence Brownlee is largely considered by critics and
audiences alike to be the world's leading bel canto tenor.
His previous release on Delos was an enchanting array of
Rossini arias which garnered him a Grammy nomination.
·
Brownlee has a rich and varied repertoire, which is evident
on this release. He has mixed standards such as Donizetti's
Don Pasquale, and L'elisir d'amore and Bellinis' I Puritani
with lesser-performed pieces like Donizetti's Rita and La
Favorite.
·
For this release, as in his previous, Brownlee is joined by
Lithuania's Kaunas City Symphony Orchestra and the
Kaunas State Choir. The brilliant interpretations and
sensitive reading from conductor Constantine Orbelian lend
themselves beautifully to Brownlee's impeccable voice.
