Rossini - La Cenerentola (from the Met, 2014) (320kbps .mp3)
From the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, Rossini’s effervescent take on the Cinderella story. Casting the title role as a virtuoso mezzo-soprano, Rossini turns the fairy-tale stereotypes into fleshed-out characters with some touching and witty music along the way. Mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato sings Cenerentola, the girl neglected by her family, and tenor Juan Diego Flórez as her Prince Charming who sees her true worth despite the rags. Fabio Luisi conducts the lively action.
Presented by Mary-Jo Heath with further commentary by Ira Siff
