Summary:
Verdi's tragic tale of misplaced love is splendidly enacted by this magnificent cast. Luciano Pavarotti is the elegant, licentious Duke of Mantua who successfully woos the innocent Gilda (Reri Grist) while he's disguised as a poor student. When he ruins her, her father, Rigoletto (Ingvar Wixell) decides to get revenge--and ends up losing the only thing he loves. With James Levine conducting, all the color and drama Verdi poured into his score are thrillingly realized.
Contents:
Preludio
Della mia bella incognita borghese
Questa o quella per me pari sono
Partite? Crudele!
Gran nuova! Gran nuova!
Ch'io gli parli
oh tu che la festa audace hai turbato
Quel vecchio maledivami!
Pari siamo!
Figlia! Mio padre!
Ah! veglia, o donna
Giovanna, ho dei rimosi
È'il sol dell'anima
Che m'ami, deh! Ripetimi
Addio, addio
Gualtier Maldè! Caro nome che il mio cor
Riedo! Perchè?
Zitti, zitti moviamo a vendetta
Ella mi fu rapita! Parmi veder le lagrime
Duca, duca! Scorrendo uniti remota via
Povero Rigoletto!
Cortigiani, vil razza dannata
Mio padre! Dio! Mia Gilda!
Parla siam soli ; Tutte le feste al tempio
Compiuto pur quanto
Si, vendetta, tremenda vendetta
E l'ami?
Sempre
La donna è mobile
Un dì, se ben rammentomi
Bella figlia dell'amore
M'odi! Venti scudi, hai tu detto?
Ah piu non ragiono
Amor mi trascina!
Della vendetta alfin giunge l'instante!
Chi e mai, chi e qui in sua vece? V'ho ingannato.
