Customer Reviews:

Toti dal Monte a truly great Butterfly.......2007-05-21

It's a pleasure reading these reviews and seeing how much this recording is appreciated now. I first encountered it in college when EMI issued it on LP in its Great Recordings of the Century series. After Callas, this was a real treat (even though it seems pretty clear to me that Callas knew this recording which effected her own in the 50's). Who is the greatest Butterfly on record seems a fatuous argument when we have several truly great ones to choose from. This dal Monte/Gigli set is one of the best, no question; so too are the Callas/diStefano and the Scotto/Bergonzi sets, equally compelling and satisfying in their own ways.

BUTTERFLY is, for me, Puccini's greatest achievement (though I'm a sucker for FANCIULLA too); it's a perfect opera. It's interesting to compare any of these three recordings with the Naxos set of Puccini's original version -- the one with all the unnecessary ornaments which failed on first performance. He then stripped it to its essential, in every way -- and the principals on these three recordings do it and him real justice.

There is a story that dal Monte was not the original Butterfly for this recording. Maria Caniglia, who recorded often with Gigli, was scheduled to do it but, at the very last minute, was felled with an illness -- and Toti came in to save the day. Just like an ever faithful Cio-Cio-San.

Exquisite Listening Experience....Bonus Tracks Included.......2006-05-19

What a beautiful and moving recording of "Madama Butterfly". Originally recorded shortly before World War II, it has been restored to a most impressive CD edition from Naxos Hstorical.

Giacomo Puccini's tale of Butterfly, a young Japanese woman's deep and unending love for B.F. Pinkerton, the American soldier, who married her for a short time of passion and then left her under the guise of returning in the Spring to take her back to America. Butterfly gives up all that is sacred to her; her religion, her traditions, and is even shunned by her family, in the belief that her love will someday return to her. She waits years, each day hoping this will be the one her love returns to her.

It's a touching tragedy, and the listening experience is absolutely exquisite. The chorus and orchestra of the Royal Opera House, Rome, conducted by Oliviero de Fabritiis is incredible. The music fills the room and your soul with beauty as it tells the story. Toti Dal Monte is Butterfly. Through her emotional portrayal, there is not an emotion that Butterfly has that you won't feel.From her happiness to her despair, her voice is magnificent and may move you to tears.Beniamino Gigli is excellent as Pinkerton as well. A marvelous supporting cast brings the story to life.

This is my favorite recording of Butterfly. I highly recommend it for lovers of this Italian Opera. I would also recommend for those who love a good introduction to opera. Be careful, this one may hook you gor good!

Considering the age of this production(1939), I think it sounds wonderful. We are fortunate to be able to listen to it on this superb restoration. It is a 2 disc set(lift center holder to get to disc 2), each disc running over 70 minutes.In 2 acts, the first act and half of the second act are on disc one. On disc two, is the 2nd half of the 2nd act. But the music doesn't end there. You will also be treated to more wonderful selections by Dal Monte(8 extra tracks in all).Bellini and Verdi among them. For a list of complete tracks, see buying info and click on see all tracks. 15-22 on disc 2 are the extra tracks. The CD includes a booklet with a list of the music, a brief bios of Puccini,Dal Monte and Gigli, a description of every scene, and a bit about Ward Marston who is the producer of this restoration. Bravo, Mr. Marston!

Enjoy....Laurie

Great stars in fine pre-war performance.......2004-05-10

I wish to expound on the brilliance of the two principals in this recording. The fifty-ish Gigli, as he usually does in his complete recordings, sounds twenty-ish in voice, and about seventeen in emotional development. Unlike the cad/fool Pinkerton most tenors provide, Gigli portrays a boy/man who simply oblivious to the concept of consequences.

To those who know Gigli only from his recital recordings, Gigli in complete performance will come as a surprise. The sheer, robust verve provided by the man in dramatic performance--as here in "Madama Butterfly", or in "Tosca", in "Pagliacci" and especially in "Un ballo in maschera"--is a thing wholly different from his mannered singing of the recitals. The sheer, golden sound he makes is convincing proof that those who place him second only to Caruso are perfectly correct.

(A note to sensitive souls: yes, he scoops; no, he does not slavishly follow every note and marking in the printed score. So, what? He follows the performing conventions of his time, not those of ours. And, by heaven, he gives a better overall performance than his DDD-era successors.)

Toti dal Monte, alas, is captured somewhat late in her career but her take on Cio-Cio San is absolutely spot-on, even though it exists in a world different from that of Freni or Tebaldi and an entirely different universe from Callas. She fills the requirements of the fiendishly difficult Puccini role so completely that without prior knowledge one would never guess that she had long been famous as Lucia and Norina.

Naxos has filled out disk 2 of the set with dal Monte recordings from the 1920s and early 30s. Listen to Sul d'un soffio eteso, Nanetta's aria from the second act of Falstaff to hear the only singer ever to give Anna Moffo a run for the money in that part. Then hear Tornami a dir che m'ami, from Don Pasquale (sung with Tito Schipa); it is not to be equaled anywhere.

Bought on a Lark!.......2002-10-30

I'm visiting Seattle and setting off for an overnight visit to Portland. The rental has a CD player, so I picked this up for the trip. I've heard so much about this recording, and the price is right, so I gave it a try.

I am amazed, period. The sound itself -- at least over these decent auto speakers -- rivals some of the best '50s mono sets I've ever heard. Ward Marston is a genius, bringing those 1938 78s to vivid life.

The soprano will take getting used to -- almost disturbingly 'girlish' in her early scenes. But Gigli is incredibly good , and so is the entire cast, the orchestra, the conductor ---

We live in a golden age of recordings, no doubt about that. Dipping into the past has never afforded so much pleasure.

An unforgettable Cio-Cio-San........2002-08-27

In its day, this remarkable set was the best-recorded opera in the catalogue. Microphones were sensitive enough to pick up not only the occasional Alfa Romeo accelerating past the Rome Opera House but also some "magical" moments, principally just before the Humming Chorus, when you'll feel yourself pulled into a tragic early evening in Nagasaki in a way that will send shivers down the spine. Naxos have recaptured all this in their budget priced reissue of this 1939 recording.

Producer Fred Gaisberg was keen to record Beniamino Gigli in a series of complete opera recordings. Gigli's Pinkerton proved to be Gigli's best recorded role. Toti dal Monte won the coveted role of Butterfly, possibly because she was a much-loved exponent of the part, she was a favourite colleague of Gigli's, and her voice was not unlike that of Rosina Storchio who Puccini chose to create the role. Her assumption of the part is extraordinary. She colours and characterizes her voice, clearly suggesting a fifteen year old girl at her entry and leaving you in no doubt thereafter about whom she is talking to. The voice itself is often piercing in its upper register, however, and sounds frayed at times beyond the requirements of dramatic characterization.

The minor parts are well cast, with voices clearly differentiated. Mario Basiola, whom I saw in my own first "Butterfly", is a convincing Sharpless, a non-committed official at first, but clearly angry and frustrated when attempting to read Pinkerton's letter to Cio-Cio-San in Act Two. Vittoria Palombini brings an unforgettable "doom-laden" voice to the part of Suzuki. Oliviero de Fabrittiis pushes the drama along at a rapid pace.

Beautiful Vintage Opera Recordings.......2006-08-09

The previous review praised these rare vintage recordings BUT then gave the CD one star because it was $30.00+ and much of the material is on two other then less expensive CDs (more material for less money per CD). However, there are five selections on this CD that are not on the other CDs (including a beautiful Maori Lullaby, Ponce's 'Estrellita' and Bianchini's "Ninna-Nanna") ALSO now there a New condition copy of this CD available for 16.95.

NOT WORTH THE PRICE.......2006-04-12

You can buy new on Preiser 2 CDS including the music on this 1- CD and more of this great artist for about the same price of this -1- CD @$30.00. Unless the jewel case is 24 carat gold, Don't bother !!!!

Some plaintive, legato singing........2001-01-19

Collectors of historic recordings of the past are well served by the Austrian label Preiser, or Lebendige Vergangenheit. You can have, sitting on your shelves, in uniform packaging and presentation, souvenirs of remembered and recorded singers of former years, and it is Toti dal Monte (1893-1975) who features first in the series. Claiming a birth year and a name that bore no resemblance to her birth certificate, Toti dal Monte rose to world-wide celebrity in 1921 when she sang Gilda at La Scala under Toscanini. Shrill in the upper register, dark and plaintive in the lower register, her voice was best suited to several of the Italian bel canto roles which are represented on this CD. Most items were recorded in the late 1920s at Milan, some with chorus and some without. Transfers are unfussy, clear and immaculate and the duration is 61 minutes.

Fantastic.......1999-12-11

EMI have raided their considerable vaults and come up with a collection that has been sorely needed. Many of the singers on this disc are unrepresented in the current CD catalogue, so it is a real pleasure to have them here at last.

The sopranos chosen certainly fit the description "In the Grand Tradition," although I'd quibble with a couple of choices (it's hard to think of Alda Noni as "grand"). Each is represented by one well-chosen aria, beginning with a 1926 recording by Puccini's first Liu, Maria Zamboni, singing "Signore, ascolta." It is too choked with sobs and overwrought, but what a piece of history! Other highlights are a moving "L'altra notte" by Pia Tassinari (who indulges in one disruptive sob at the end -- you can't accuse the Italians of a lack of passion) and a lovely "Donde lieta" by Sara Scuderi. We also get an authoritative "When I am laid in earth" by Kirsten Flagstad and a lush Marietta's Lied sung by Joan Hammond. Best of all, perhaps, is Eleanor Steber's rapturous rendition of "Depuis le jour," one of the best recordings of that aria ever.
