Donizetti - Don Pasquale

Over Donizetti - Don Pasquale

• Fr?d?ric Chaslin leads the Orchestre Symphonique R?gion Centre-Val de Loire/Tours and the Choir of Op?ra de Tours in a performance of Gaetano Donizetti's comic opera Don Pasquale (1842). Featuring a cast of the most famous singers of the day, Don Pasquale premiered at the Parisian Salle Ventadour in 1843. It was an immediate success, being performed in the great opera houses of Europe within a year after its premiere. The work's libretto is largely written by Giovanni Ruffini, as well as by the composer himself. It tells the hilarious story of the old, wealthy bachelor Don Pasquale, who is outraged when hearing his nephew Ernesto wishes to marry the impoverished widow Norina. Consequently, Pasquale decides to disinherit his nephew by marrying himself. His friend Malatesta and Norina, however, make up a plan to thwart the old bachelor, arranging a mock marriage. Among the soloists are Laurent Naouri (Don Pasquale), Florian Sempey (Malatesta), S?bastien Droy (Ernesto), Anne-Catherine Gillet (Norina), and Francois Bazola (notary). This performance was recorded at Op?ra de Tours, in 2021.
