ROSSINI SERIO - Collector's Box Set (7 Operas) [14 DVDs] 37888.14

The first misconception that the 'Rossini Renaissance' has gradually corrected is that Rossini was able to excel only in the comic genre. Rossini’s serious operas, as a matter of fact, are not only overall of high artistic quality but also quite original. Indeed, they had a huge influence on the Italian Romantic output of Donizetti, Bellini, Pacini, Mercadante and the younger Verdi. We could go as far as to say that Rossini was not merely an Italian phenomenon but a European one, whose arrival had the explosive effect of a bomb sweeping away centuries-old conventions and manners of speaking, and introducing a series of new codes and attitudes to take their place, which all 19th-century opera drew upon, perhaps especially in the serious genre.

This collector’s box set offers an interesting selection of Rossini’s main opera seria (and semiseria, with reference to La Gazza Ladra) in the hands of great interpreters, conductors and directors, recorded live in prestigious venues such as Rossini Opera Festival (ROF) with the philological approach granted by Fondazione Rossini of Pesaro. Lesserknown works, such as Torvaldo e Dorliska, Ermione and Bianca e Falliero, are also included.
