Editorial Review: There are so many fine Pagliaccis available that this one should have something great to offer if it is to compete. What will make the difference to the buyer is the tenor Richard Tucker. Some may love his secure, ringing tone and overemotionalizing, while others may find his bawling and hamming awful. The little-known Mietta Sighele is a very fine Nedda, singing with conviction and a pleasing tone, but baritone Kari Nurmela lacks the real Italianate voice needed for Tonio's music. Riccardo Muti leads this live performance from 1971 with fire. --Robert Levine

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Richard Tucker stirs up the 1971 May Festival
SOURCE: Live performance from the Florence May Festival, May 1971.
SOUND: Opera d'Oro, as usual, is economical with details, but my guess is that this is a recorded broadcast, since the voices and orchestra are in even balance while the audience is fairly distant. The mono sound is hardly up to digital studio standards, but good enough to afford pleasure to anyone willing to listen sympathetically.
