Summary:
Donizetti's Nemorino was among Luciano Pavarotti's greatest roles--his natural charm and mellifluous voice perfectly suited one of opera's most loveable characters. Kathleen Battle is Adina, the object of his affections, who flirts with the dashing Sergeant Belcore but eventually realizes whom she truly loves. Paul Plishka as the quack Dulcamara provides the elixir of the title that miraculously helps Nemorino win the hand of his beloved.
Contents:
Preludio
Bel conforto al mietitore
Quanto è bella, quanto è cara!
Chi la mente mi rischiara?
Benedette queste carte!
Marziale
Come Paride vezzoso
Or se m'ami, come io t'amo
Intanto, o mia ragazza
Una parola, o Adina
Chiedi all'aura lusinghiera
Che vuol dire codesta suonata?
Udite, udite, o rustici
Ardir! Ha forse il cielo
Voglio dire, lo stupendo Elisir
Caro Elisir! Sei mio!
Esulti pur la barbara
Tran, tran, tran ; In guerra ed in amor
Signor sargente
Adina credimi
Andiam, Belcore
Cantiamo, facciam brindisi
Io son ricco e tu sei bella
Silenzio! È qua il Notaro
Le feste nuziali
La donna è un animale
Ai perigli della guerra
Qua la mano, giovinotto
Saria possibile?
Dell'elisir mirabile
Io già m'immagino
Come sen va contento!
Quanto amore!
Una tenera occhiatina
Una furtiva lagrima
Eccola. Oh! Qual le accresce beltà
Prendi, per me sei libero
Or, or si spiega
Il mio rigor dimentica
Alto! Fronte!
Ei corregge ogni difetto.
