Overview
Giuseppe Verdi's Luisa Miller stands as a masterpiece of Romantic opera, weaving themes of love, betrayal, and tragedy. This exquisite 3-LP box set features a star-studded cast led by Katia Ricciarelli as Luisa and Plácido Domingo as her star-crossed lover, Rodolfo. Supported by Renato Bruson, Elena Obraztsova, and the Chorus and Orchestra of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, under the baton of Lorin Maazel, this recording is a triumph of dramatic and vocal artistry.
Set against the backdrop of a small Austrian village, Luisa Miller unfolds a poignant tale based on Friedrich Schiller’s play Kabale und Liebe. Verdi’s expressive score captures the emotional depth of the characters, from tender moments of love to the heartbreak of betrayal and sacrifice.
