Summary:
James Levine conducts a brilliant cast in this sweeping performance of Verdi's rarely heard opera, led by Plácido Domingo in the title role of a Protestant minister. Sharon Sweet is his wife, Lina, who has been lured into adultery, leaving Stiffelio caught between his desire for revenge and his religion's admonition to forgive. This Giancarlo Del Monaco production also stars Vladimir Chernov as Stankar, Lina's father, Peter Riberi as her lover, Raffaele, and Paul Plishka as Jorg.

Opening credits
Prelude
Oh santo libro!
Di qua varcando
Colla cenere disperso
Viva Stiffelio ; A te, Stiffelio, un canto
Non ha per me un accento
Vidi dovunque gemere
Ah v'appare in fronte scritto
Tosto ei disse! A te ascenda, o Dio clemente!
Verrà! Dovrò rsiponder!
Dite che il fallo a tergere
Ed io pure in faccia agli oumini
Basti adesso ; Or meco venite
M'evitan
Plaudiam! Di Stiffelio s'allegri il soggiorno
Non solo all'iniquo ch'ha il Maestro venduto
Oh qual m'invade ed agita
Nol volete? Chi ti salva, sciagurato
Curtain bows
Oh cielo! Dove son io?
Ah dalli scanni eterei
Lina, Lina! Perder dunque voi volete
Io resto, Scegli, Un duello?
Ah no! È impossibile!
Dessa non è ; Non punirmi, Signor, nel tou furore
Ei fugge! E con tal foglio
Lina, pensai che un angelo
Ah sì, finisca ; Oh gioia inesprimibile
Dite ai fratei che al tempio saró
Oposto è il calle
Non allo sposo volgomi
Ah sì, voliamo al tempio
Non punirmi, Signor, nel tuo furore
Stiffelio? Eccomi
Bows and closing credits.
