4 out of 5 stars Callas bids farewell to Lucia in grand style..........2007-05-16

I've always had a soft spot for this recording as it was the first (along with the 1957 "Il Barbiere di Siviglia") Callas opera sets that I acquired. My original lp's are now more than 20 years old and I still love this recording. True, Lucia is one of Callas' most controversial roles but also one that she helped to restore to its proper place as a work of true musical drama by showing that it was far more than just a piece for coloratura fireworks.

From 1959 onward, Callas began to remake a number of her key roles in stereo for Angel/EMI, this Lucia being the first of those remakes ("La Gioconda", "Norma" and "Tosca" would follow.) Like the other remakes (with the possible excetion of the 1964 "Tosca"), the earlier mono versions that Callas recorded need to be heard in conjuntion with the stereo remakes. In each of the earlier versions, Callas is more secure of voice though interpretively she is finer in the remakes.

That being said, there are a number of things I should mention where this recording is concerned. Firstly, I find the leading man to be a big letdown in this recording. Although Tagliavini was a great lyric tenor in his day and had partnered Callas in stage performances of this opera earlier in the decade, by 1959 he was past his prime and at times sounds grumpy. His high notes sound dry and forced which doesn't help Callas who was not vocally at her very best in this recording. I can't help but think how much better this set would have been if Callas had been partnered by Bergonzi, young, ardent and dashing as Edgardo. Bergonzi had performed the role opposite Callas 2 years previously and would have made a perfect partner for the diva. Imagine the young, impetuous Bergonzi opposite the Callas Lucia on the edge of madness from her very first appearance. Secondly, the inclusion of a young Cappucilli at the very outset of his career is a bonus as a suave Enrico. Thirdly, Serafin is his usual splendid self and draws a stunning performance from the Philharmonia. Finally, the stereo sound from 1959 is fine and atmospheric, worthy of capturing Callas in her final thoughts on one of her greatest roles.

And Callas? I unashamedly admit that I love just about everything the diva recorded and this set is no exception. It's true that the top notes are not what they once were and there are a few wobbles that even I can't countenance (the worst one for me is in the reprise of "Quando rapito in estasi.") While it is true that her voice is not as full as in her earlier recordings I find that the fragile quality of her singing here works well in interpreting Lucia who is in a fragile mental and emotional state from the moment she appears. I also love the vocal colours that Callas brings to the role especially in the mad scene where she presents a dazed heroine in a world of her own where spectres alternate with loving memories of the past. In all it's a wonderful assumption of a great role. I also find that the 1959 interpretation is deeper than in the 1953 recording which I find more straightforward. But I love the 1953 for the steadiness of the voice and hearing the high E flats full, strong and secure. That being said, the two in this recording aren't that bad, the first lightly sung and dead on pitch, the second sung with more force resulting in a little spreading. However, the wobbles are minimal in this recording and are outweighed by such a great characterisation.

Where recorded Lucia's are concerned, my favourite is Callas (and I'm not backward in saying that I'm biased.) I have the Sills Lucia which I enjoy for the high notes and effortless coloratura but I feel Callas is more Lucia than Sills. I've heard Sutherland's second Lucia which I enjoyed for hearing her in wonderful, free and strong voice and for the great Edgardo of Pavarotti. But, I find Sutherland's matronly sound a stumbling block with Callas sounding younger and more fragile as the heroine. However, all three singers have done Lucia great service over the years and none should be ignored.

My recommendation: for lovers of Lucia and Callas, this is a must. To hear Callas' final thoughts on the role prior to renouncing it by the end of 1959, this is it. True, there are moments of insecurity but in this recording you will hear Lucia beautifully vocalised by one of her greatest champions.

5 out of 5 stars Terrific!.......2007-02-11

I have played this recording three times since I got it two days ago and I am absolutely thrilled with it. I have had the 1953 mono Callas Lucia for a few years now plus I have a couple live Callas Lucias. This one is wonderful for the great sound, plus Callas' co-workers on this recording are the best bunch.

I do really enjoy di Stefano on the 1953 set, but Tagliavini is just as great of a singer in my opinion - the voice is sweet enough, the focus is tight and the high notes are thrilling. He seems to hold back a little in the first act, possibly to let Callas shine, but in the sextet and the last act, he is dripping with enthusiasm and pathos.

Capuccilli is a better sounding Enrico - Gobbi sounds ugly and wooden in the older recording. Either the Bel Canto demands or perhaps the mono recording emphasize the negative aspects of Gobbi's voice in the older recording. Capuccilli has a pleasant, but still somewhat sinister sound.

The bass - Bernard Ladysz had an unusually beautiful voice and is one more lovely aspect to sweeten this already terrific recording.

Callas herself, sounds more appropriate to the role in this recording. Her voice is much less dark and more frail - not frail compared to other sopranos but compared to her earlier voice, she sounds lighter and more agile. Her coloratura is a bit more accurate in this recording. I love it. Don't be put off by it being a somewhat 'late' recording of Callas. She made the most of the studio setting and brought astounding drama to her studio recordings, plus, even when her voice was giving her some trouble, she was able to command it well in the studio setting. This is a wonderful Lucia. I am sorry I did not buy it earlier, however, I would not consider parting with the old mono one either. They are both an indispensable part of a Callas lover's collection.

5 out of 5 stars Perfect Voice Isn't Always Better Opera.......2007-01-15

I have to agree with Cornelia's earlier review here. For me the essence of Callas is truly found in her desceding chromatics and the way she phrases "Alfin son tua, alfin sei mio!" in this recording. NO! the totality of her voice isn't perfection here---but who cares. It's a defining moment in 20th century opera---That entire aria is. It's a tour de force made even more compelling by the fact that her instrument isn't perfect---It's a triumph of will and I've never been satisfied by another interpretation---not Sills, not Sutherland--well most definately not Sutherland, but not even Callas in better voice on earlier recordings.

5 out of 5 stars A maiden Lucia.......2004-07-13

Sometimes I wonder at those who listen to Lucia di Lammermoor merely to collect vocal tricks, gimmicks and use- as well as senseless fireworks. I hear Sills and repeat a critic: "Full of notes, empty of sense!". Sutherland's matronly sound never quite fit this delirious maiden either. Callas' voice in 1959 was fragile, yet surprisingly accurate and brilliant. However stupid must one be not to notice it? When has the phrase "Alfin son tua, alfin sei mio!" been sung with such meaning and longing, a moment all other Lucias wreck with their tweeting? And actually I find more beauties here than in all other Lucias. Her voice has an airy, soft quality here, reducing all other Lucias to lifeless, bloodless unfeeling robots in my opinion. This is a REVELATION by a genius, an artist who knew better than tweeting. And her trills? Pitch-perfect! Get yourself a pitch-pipe and try! And the cadenza? Beautifully done! I also love young Cappuccilli as Enrico, what an amazing voice! Serafin is, well, Serafin. The greatest Belcanto conductor, reducing all others to pupils. Do yourself a favour and buy this Lucia, for Callas, Serafin, the amazing sound and the TRUEST meaning of Lucia. We are indebted to La Divina who gave us everything she had! Long may she reign!

5 out of 5 stars Lovely last Lucia.......2004-03-30

I find nothing bad in this Lucia. It's deep, full of emotions and beautiful. I'm glad I bought it, I'll try Callas' other Lucias too. Just my two cents.

                5 out of 5 stars A Big One for Preiser!.......2004-11-11

                This is a fantastic collection of Verdi performances. Preiser scores a big one! I am impressed with their recent findings: The rare Guerrini Traviata and Forza, Stella Roman's colorful Trovatore Leonora, and now this truly wonderful collection featuring great performances from all voice categories

                Higlights are:
                Ernani Involami: Souez (Beautiful Rendition)
                Forza trio: Martinelli is a god, etc...
                Graveyard Aria from Ballo: Spani
                O partia mia: the unforgettable Arangi-Lombardi


                The Revelation is Grandi's Un macchia from Macbeth. It is the most imaginative ever. Simply spellbinding and with a stunning pianissimo high Dflat crowning the ending.

                Preiser's engineers get better and better. I am duly impressed!
