Enrico di Borgogna is a melodramma per musica that was premiered in Venice in 1818, marking Donizetti's stage debut. The plot of this rare opera follows a rather traditional scheme: Enrico wants to defeat the son of the villain who usurped his father's throne and is about to marry his beloved Elisa. Fortunately, he succeeds in stopping the marriage and regaining his inheritance. This release is a world premiere video recording of the 2018 Donizetti Opera festival performance, which received great reviews for it's brilliant staging. Director Silvia Paoli uses a "theatre within the theatre" approach which gives way to moments of sheer humor and amusement: as the curtain opens, the public is brought back to the time of the opera premiere. Played on period instruments by Academia Montis Regalis and conducted by repertoire specialist Alessandro de Marchi, this opera features two prima donnas like Sonia Ganassi and Anna Bonitatibus in the main roles. Extra content: interviews with Conductor Alessandro de Marchi, Sonia Ganassi and Anna Bonitatibus. "This was... a genuinely funny presentation, which had the audience laughing out loud. Everything was treated as a source of fun, from the narrative, and it's mix of characters through the theatrical conventions of the time, even poking fun at the singers themselves. It was all staged in a blaze of color, fast-moving action, fabulous costumes and cleverly managed extraneous silliness. " (Operawire) [Anna Bonitatibus] displayed a burnished, deep timbre, sparkling coloratura and wonderful phrasing, confirming her status as the most interesting mezzo of her generation. " (Bachtrack. Com) "Sonia Ganassi... has a strong, dynamically versatile and flexible voice which she is able to manage intelligently and with skill. . "(Operawire)
