Verdi: Rigoletto (highlights)
Renato Bruson (Rigoletto), Edita Gruberova (Gilda), Neil Shicoff (Il Duca), Robert Lloyd (Sparafucile), Brigitte Fassbaender (Maddalena)
Orchestra e Coro dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, Giuseppe Sinopoli
A superb cast, with Neil Shicoff a wonderfully swaggering Duke. Sinopoli's tempos are erratic, lacking in tension. Still alluring, though.
